Ogden was great. You should read my Megalodon and The Cat poems. They are modeled on Nash. I will have to look up the poets you cited. Thanks for reading Maurice

One of my favorite poets. His poetry was written mostly humorous. I wrote a poem based on a cat to mirror his one on the dog. Thanks for reading Sara.
