Thank you, season's greetings! Your voice is lovely: I am quite envious. (The bad fairy at my christening made me a corncrake, amongst other things.)

The Yehuda Amichai poem: 'thrust aside like wicked brides', that's vivid. Suspicion of the political intent of allies? I will have to investigate... More poets for everyone for winter break, your idea is genius.

Oh, that's a lovely rendition of the Donaghy poem, perfect. It emptied out my head, which is terribly restful. I had too much stuff in there.

Have a lovely Yule!

Happy holidays to you as well ♥ I wasn't sure how to pronounce your username, I'm sorry!

I am so glad you enjoyed! I thought poetry was a good idea and I'm glad other people concur.

Thank you for the compliments, even if I'm sure you're not as bad as a bird.

Oh no, I meant literally. Keyboards are terribly hard to navigate with wings, typing is a bind. *flaps off*

Wow. You are really good at reading.

And I'm glad you picked your favorite.
