First Post

Well, this is an AMAZING blog, and the only one I have ever felt the need to be part of (I know, I need to get out more. Or should I say, less?)

Lots of good words and images, which I've just started to delve into.

So I will post a short poem of mine, the one whose 1st few lines came to me in that special hypnopompic stupor we call "waking up" :


Remembering to Sing.
- By Jack C. Ritter.

If every deaf mute fell at once
into the singing seas,

what rhyming tremolos they'd plumb
from whales and anemones!

We'd fetch their choral catch with nets
of woven unforgetfulness.

And to this deaf and dreamless Earth,
restore Her songs and memories.
