C Plus Literacy

C+ literacy



                                       a name we can't say

                                             she remains

                                       too much to handle

Thus showing the power of properly put together words Maureen. C+lit(eracy). At first I thought C+unt(imely), but knowing by now that you are one that always picks the correct word I knew I didn't need to think about what I just read; I knew what you had written Maureen.

Her work is brilliant. I can only hope this piece is a worthy offering to help spread the word. Aiming for an A. x
