Certainly, I didn't know you painted as well, that would be really interesting to see how your paintings reflect on your poems.

Maybe the Internet is a good place for the imagination to run free? I don't know. But you'd better hope Mum & Dad don't find out. They won't be keen on that kind of imaginative release.

ACtually the ambiguity is great here, it's hard to get a handle on preicsely what's going on with the 'kitty', and the feeling of loss is somehow reflected in that

By the way, is Unity Mitford the one who went to Germany?

I don't know much about Verdi, but this captures what impression I do have of it. Mysterious, heavy. Great

Absolutely I do. Sorry if I've insulted Tennessee in any way...

I think you're right, this is by far not the worst thing on poemranker.

I love The Office. It is so much like, well, my office. I never really watch League of Gentleman because my wife is so mortally afraid of Papa Lazarou. She didn't sleep for a whole night after that episode.

I feel the same way about Slough - the largest light industrial estate in Europe, no less. And the Mars Bar factory. And Willima Herschel discovered uranus while living there. And, and, and The Office is based there. And that's it.

Very good - the dilemma of the socialist faced with New Labour. What a middle-class and furtive party it is now. Which is why I always vote Liberal Democrat - as if that's any great alternative.

I think the third quatrain lets this poem down a bit; it seems to reduce rather than express her pain. But the couplet is a killer. Well done.

Keats this time? A good and concise response.
