Middle Earth Reflection

A famous Israeli writer just died I read it in the newspaper this morning Fame - the ever present hope for a poet such as myself J.R.R. was very famous He had hsi detractors The late Edmund Wilson was one All writers and poets have their detractors Well - a New Year is coming Glad to be able to write this ode Although I am not a Catholic I know good wriitng when I see it It is my contention that poetry transcends bounadaries and religions Remember the lyric "Well I ahve never been to england - though I kind of like the Beatles" So readers although we are not Beatles We can still re - read the Hobbit and feel happy!
