Congratulations being chosen as The Modern Poenm Of The Day! 5 Stars full.Enjoyed very much
CONGRATULATIONS on being chosen as the Modern Poem Of The Day. Hooray to the family of the late poetess.

A mistake. A cliff. Scintillating! 5*****.

“I shall create! If not a note, a hole. If not an overture, a desecration.” Absolutely beautiful.
