I've had a few sessions over time and occasionally one now - that bugs me .. but I just ignore them and get on - frustratingly difficult to do .. <br /><br />I've been wanting to understand poetry more, as well as literature .... I need to take some courses - sometime!<br /><br />Cheers Hilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3147719773752098767.post-56275681906464976662015-05-14T16:14:02.863+05:302015-05-14T16:14:02.863+05:30Beautiful poem !Beautiful poem !ayalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13243362803799877014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3147719773752098767.post-85718387932988658752015-05-14T10:31:52.174+05:302015-05-14T10:31:52.174+05:30I love reading Hilary's posts :) A-Z and non-A...I love reading Hilary's posts :) A-Z and non-A-Z both.. <br /><br />The spamming started after the A-Z for me...but I saw some pretty large blogs with moderation on during the challenge, so it must have got really intolerable for them to have done that,,,<br /><br />Poetry is not a popular subject, there is a misconception that it has to be convoluted and abstruse and inaccessible to be any Nilanjana Bosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08656370320322301943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3147719773752098767.post-35725839286325643972015-05-14T08:37:09.112+05:302015-05-14T08:37:09.112+05:30Lovely award to Hilary.

Commenting was a bit of a problem this year I gather.<br /><br />I have had your poem open on my computer for several hours, reading, mulling over it. Perhaps you could do a post on analysing poetry. I teach it to my students all the time, but when it comes to modern poetry I struggle with what the author is really saying. <br /><br />You don&Denise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3147719773752098767.post-32524739468450619812015-05-11T18:50:20.887+05:302015-05-11T18:50:20.887+05:30You totally deserve it, and not just for the A-Z.....You totally deserve it, and not just for the A-Z.. agree that commenting is important, but not everyone does it with the compassion and finesse you do, Hilary.
