I realise, from dipping in here already, that 'I have broad shoulders' is rather cliched!
I apologise, in advance, that my responses to others' poetry will be very basic!
Cheers!
Hello
Just a dabbler here; reading and writing poetry, for the sheer pleasure of it. Of course, as in all things (apart from ironing), I'd like to become better. So, please be as harsh as you like about my efforts; I have broad shoulders.

Thank-you David, Antcliff and Julia.
I look forward to knowing the people on this forum better.
I hope you will not try to spare my blushes with anodyne reviews nor, take offence if I don't 'get' your poetry.
I am unversed in the critical appraisal of verse but, I am a lover of the art and wish to learn more.
Poetry is, for me, confessional and accusatory; stirring and soothing; playful and aggressive; adversarial and conciliatory; prayerful and impious and most of all cathartic.
I bloody love it! x
