I added a semi colon and dust clad this morning, and lengthened the title

It was late when I wrote it and was rather tired..'

Oh how sweet the taste of living, its soothing full; and joy.. This spring..' roll fields of clover, where ride the horse & boy when wide blue sky is stretching, and forest boughs show green there sweetly smile the maidens, as farmers feel like kings upon the shaded benches, people sit this day; the lark is rising steeply where winds a dust clad; pilgrims way..'

Hello Paul, I Don't claim it as mine really I Beleive all true poetry flows from God I Am merely a conduit (which is a great privilege) Maybe there is more of me in the mediocre Pieces, but in all truth everything either spiritual Or physical is the Lords so it's academic If we get right down to it.'

Joe, I'm astonished at the depth of your poetry, let alone its poetic merit. Your poems are truly remarkable. I have read "Alive the Spring" several times and thoroughly enjoyed each reading (just one example). All the best, Paul

I put my instructions here so you could look right up and see what you were doing. hahaha (I always follow the golden rule. I would want someone to do that for me. I can't be bothered seeing something at Soupmail and then forgetting how to do it by the time I am in the other place!!!)
