Old Poets
Old poets never die
Nor do they simply fade away
They either write
Themselves into a corner
Or get written into history by
Someone else they say
Maybe a lover or a stranger
Who knows it matters not
I notice I am history from today

Without a history, whats to write about.

Those words of poets live for ever in the minds of those who read them. Reading your words Neville consigns them to the glory of history, never to be forgotten.
Now there's a fine thing if ever there was..... Bless you GF60 and I hope you have a fine Sunday sir.... Neville
