Much appreciated. Will try my best. These finicky apps are giving a greater fight against noise reduction than anticipated. Won't know if can reduce all the background noise. Will come up with something. My apologies in advance

Glad to be here. Glad listening to you all. Glad this space exists.

Name: Shiyah K. Trotman

This is my 2nd poem of this month's collection! After hearing some of the others, I'm inspired to play with my breath and tone a bit more so I'll try that on my final go for the month. I think this one's a bit dry, but I hope it's good enough to make the cut! <3

Lines written at a small distance from my house, and send by my little boy to the person to whom they are addressed by William Wordsworth (April 7 1770-April 23 1850)
Text URL: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/9622/9622-h/9622-h.htm#poem7
Duration: 01:58
MP3 URL: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/spc224_lines_nu_128kb.mp3

The book was written by two people and I think they collaborated on some of the poems, but all other sources I found quickly gave just this author.

Thank you, Shiyah!
By the way, here's your Reader page in the catalogue: https://librivox.org/reader/17028 which you can also access from your name-link in the Magic Windows. It lists the projects you read for, and can also help you keep track of your sections in ongoing projects, under the "Reader section details" link.
The first times before a microphone might feel awkward, but the more time you spend recording, the more confident you'll get. To me you already sound like a natural :D
