God and Devil

Like the way you have attacked this one. I think Love and a tendency to give words to the wise comes with those who have lived a life among the madding crowd. Hope 2023 goes well for you. You seem to have hit the ground running with your efforts in producing the goods with poetry both in quality and quantity. Best regards David in NZ

Thanks David. Now have more time for poetry. I've found it helps me keep my spirit up and mind alive during these times of worry, isolation and now the Arctic weather. I do believe poetry could help many folk through these strange times. Best wishes. Tony.
