Elena,,I Really can't understand how I make silly errors!! I look at a poem, over and over before posting. Yet always miss something! The eyes have it. Pangie xx

Very well and tactfully said, Pangie. I was a pretty good speller in school and won many spelling bees but I find I'm relying more on my spell check nowadays! If I find errors on other folks poetry, I will make a positive suggestion via Soup Mail so as not to embarrass them. Bob H

Thanks, Bob for SOUPMAILING OTHERS. MY errors are not from my intellect. Mine are visual hassles! And not rereading my poem more times preceding a send. All the blame falls on me, for sure. Not what knew in high school.Pangie xx

I here (hear) you; my eyes are getting weeker (weaker), especially the spead at which they focus, usually my brain out-running my eyes -- don't always see what I am thinking; I can read a work over and over again, and miss the simpliest errors. When Ila's not around to proofread before I publish, I am left with just the cat...and, love him as I do, he is only a meaw-velous editor.

Prince de Mino! Did not know you had a cat like mine, who cannot proofread.)))) your eye description made me laugh, so similar. Long poetry? Cannot read. My brain checks out, eight stanzas kill me. I leave that poem and find one in English that chokes me, Hope in the next life, there is clarity in poetry., I hope I write clearly and with punch, now! Pangie xx
