Smart thinking there!

Thank you for your March poems! Quite inspirational!!

I have an optional edit if you choose to: In March by Hopper, there's a line "Red windy dawn" but I think you read it as "down", at around 0:19. I'll mark it PL OK, but feel free to re-upload if you choose to edit.

It was definitely "down". I have corrected it at the same location.

May or may not get something else for this month. My voice has been attacked, as I'm sure you'll hear. Thought it might fit the mood of this poem though.

You mentioned doing a solo of that book - so that's where the poem recordings could have been used - but maybe I misunderstood.

I'm fine with whatever you decide! We can keep these in the mw in the meantime; I don't want to empty it now, bad luck! :mrgreen:
I definitely didn't mean to imply anything about your speed! I was trying to be quick and get stuff in at the start of the month and I was just too clever for my own good. I think it will probably be better if I swap out the previous three for three new ones. Kipling doesn't really need the publicity, but this new author, I think, has nothing currently recorded so she probably has greater need of a slot in the poetry collection. I'm sorry to have taken up more of your time than necessary!

Still with the deeper, raspier voice, but had time in between torrential rain and wind gusts to get these today, then LV went offline.

(The other Holy Sonnet in a short poetry collection has the first phrase included, so I put that here for the MW.)

I ran cross this in this season, looking up materials for Good Friday. I don't do it justice, but here it is, anyway. :lol:

Aw thank you so much, Ike! This first title is making me hungry!! :D


"Biftek aux Champignons" is PL OK!



"Minmerus in Church" has the title repeated at the beginning.



"The Fair Circassian" has the first few lines repeated at about 0:09-0:16.


If you could make the edits by Saturday, that'd be great. If you don't get the chance, it will probably be an easy fix for me to do before cataloguing if needed. :)
