Belle & others: With all 'due' appreciation for your reasoning i.e. no appreciation, (cont.) (cont.) I humbly offer my 'take' on the subject of 'following dead poets on PH', as follows: (cont.)
I agree with you Belle.There is no point following dead people as no new posts of their poems are coming on Notification
When you get as old and slow as I am, Dead people are the only people we can follow,
True, very true! I think I have made the mistake too.
Richard, Poem Hunter is strange. It says that you are following six people, but when I click on the list, only four names come up: Mary Elizabeth Frye, Langston Hughes, Charles Baudelaire, and Sumit Ganguly.
2) Daniel Brick is no longer living...but he's still very much alive in our hearts! And although I don't really follow the dead, I'll make an exception for him and Cohen any day! Here's to them and the exceptionally living and loving poets on PH!
With so much talent on this site, why not follow the living! Belle, as a rule, I don't generally post whom I'm following. But the living, loving, laughing Belle would certainly be one that I'd be ringing for!

Bri, in spite of your logic here, I checked your list, and YOU ARE NO LONGER FOLLOWING Shakespeare or any other dead people. Maybe I convinced you? Happy New Year!
