Posted on Thu, 29 Dec 2016
This is fascinating, though I'm not one for nonsense poetry on the whole, but my husband was saying recently that his memories of Jaberwocky were that he thought most of the words had derivation from real words, if you could go into it, and just...

Posted on Mon, 05 Dec 2016
I enjoyed your singing word-play 'nonsense' Elsie. Keyboards can be enslaving and mind-and-limb numbing. Though I felt the burst of freedom and lively activity could get rather self-centred and hedonistic?! Rhiannon

Nice to 'see'/'hear you again. and cleverly twisting your mathematical words around!
