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...

I enjoyed your singing word

Nice to 'see'/'hear you again

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

Oh, I do like this. Simple and short verbal picture and message. And we all need to take to heart that the seeds of honesty; respect; integrity; truth, are the things that work, in the long run. Rhiannon
