Hi folks

 For a few years now I've been posting my poetry on Facebook (and made many friends in the process). Now I want to be more widely available (and make more friends) through this blog. Poetry is a warm community. Join in -- leave a comment if you like. 

There will be no ads. This isn't for money. I just want to share poems.
