"Only constructive criticism be given regarding your poem. Be that as it may, I hope that's what you'll get. I know the 'leap of faith' [that Laurie has also past referred to] it takes to post a poem you've written," from Elizabeth.
Erm, "your poem" "You've written."
I must be totally out of the loop here. If I am missing something that everyone else is seeing, I apologise sincerely.
However, (and there's always an however) there was no disclaimer about "your poem....you've written."
These words were allowed to pass without comment p? I am definitely missing something.
To any reader passing through this thread, they might have left the forum never knowing who Larkin was, or, that he wrote the poems.
Thanks for the offer of the ladder, but you could climb up and have a look through Larkin's 'High Windows' and get a sense of his perception on youth, ageing, and his lifelong fear of death. Well worth the effort of finding it and reading it. The last words of each stanza/verse flow easily into the next. A point raised earlier about your previous offering of his work.
Bye the way, Albert's flatulence is legendary. Ignore him not.
