The only thing is "Where almost no subject is taboo" - I post my poems with gentle swear words elsewhere because I do not relish seeing a**** or da***** and Soup does this which ANNOYS the cr** out of me!

Yeah, me too, Caren. I used the word "queer" in the standard, old meaning and they asterisked it! Really! You'd think we were six-year-olds who don't know those words. Oh, but they do, don't they!

I fully agree Milton, I've learnt so much since I came here four years ago. We're one big family all with a common purpose to write poetry on any subject. Hope you have a lovely weekend. Tom

Valsa, I truly appreciate your read and your comment. Welcome, newcomer! The triolet is one of my favorite forms, so I use it whenever the theme seems to fit.
