I am very sad to find that I can not comment on moonphish's poems. He is my favourite poet on Booksie,though I enjoy many others too. I have no idea what has gone wrong,I can't think of a way I may have upset him.Anyway,if I have upset you alvin I am extremely sorry.

I found Booksie yesterday,am still learning how to use the site. So please be patient with me.

I joined Booksie and then found out I had cancer last year,so my enjoyment of Booksie waned a bit during my treatment.

Now,a year on,I am feeling fine and quite my old self.

I am seriously getting down to reading as many poems as I can.

I can't tell you all how much pleasure I get from reading your words.

Your creativity and individuality make Booksie unique and

a treasure house for poetry lovers like me.

I am a fortunate woman.

I have a wonderful family and friends.

I have the world at my fingertips with my computer,

and I have Booksie.
