Dear Tom,
The word "stoater" is Scots.
I have written most of my poetry in English, but , on occasion, I write in Scots. My poem, "The Paper", will be posted soon on the "Poetry for Forum Members".
Must go now,
Andrew.

"The Paper" (sic),
I had almost forgotten about that one, but I'll read it, in Scots, on October 18th in Gloucester, to an audience of beautiful losers. If I get away with it, a translation might be posted on the "Poetry for Forum Members" section.
None of this can detract from "The Road Not Taken" or "The Dangling Conversation": both deserve a place on message boards devoted to any serious writer. I make no apologies for resurrecting Frost (deceased) and Simon (alive) .
All of this convinces me that you can get away with a helluva lot on another writer's website..just stick to the rules, and travel to Gloucester.
Andrew.

cohen brought a unique way of thinking to my life.. before cohen as if sth was lacking but he filled a great emptiness in my soul.. trying to understand him is a pleasure for me.. he brings a surprise whenever i pay attention to the songs.. thank you cohen, thank you my brother..

Welcome to the Forum, River ~ isn't it amazing the difference you felt when you listened to him? I still continue to feel that same difference, after 30 years.

thank you, it is so nice to hear such words because had forgotten to hear that kind of friendly things.. when i feel disappointed, upset, lonely or happy, even delighted, i always listen to cohen and i know people who listen to him can understand me better.. hello to all..

Hello and welcome River, I've just returned from a wonderful holiday in your country, where everyone was really friendly and hospitable. I didn't realise Leonard was well known in Turkey.

That's a nice introduction, River
