I only read about eleven or twelve of ‘em- good stuff. (I’ll read all of them when Time permits). <br /><br />If you’ll be looking through this blog, may I suggest two poems to check out: My Daughter’s Voice (my sole favorite poem), and Blame Her Not ... I’d- truthfully- love to know what you think of them!John W.

Not to say that his works hold supremacy there- Wordsworth, respectfully to Coleridge, seems more attuned to that movement’s core, albeit ‘unphilosophically’.<br /><br />Notwithstanding, our poet- devoid of his bent to comprehend things philosophically- would have been that poetic period’s leader … he would have been its ‘butterfly’.<br /><br />Obiterspeak, may I ask your name?John W.
