Thanks, Followers!

I’m saying thanks to all my Followers; they help me keep going.  Today’s poem wasn’t exactly earth-shaking, but I think that as long as I keep writing, some will turn out to be good.  Maybe (just maybe!) you think this is like the million monkeys with keyboards typing away at random, and the chance of them actually writing a book.  I have hopes of doing better than monkeys.  I think some of my poems are quite good.  Publishers have also thought so – hooray!  A poet has to be a good liar, that is, good at making things that can’t be verified seem plausible, like any story-teller.  If they are a romantic like me, they take a childish pleasure in some quite simple things, even though they think that Love is the most important thing.
