RE: The Dark marauder returns. Poetry dice 37.
It's amazing what a retreat from cognition and a good vegetation can achieve.
I find the word stupid a little harsh, but you did reveal your ignorance re stitching techniques. I'm a crocheter not a knitter.
Also, as I head into Spring and you autumn I was going to post you a fab 100% acrylic scarves, or perhaps even one from my more exclusive Australian merino range, but...
Let me know, Iam only half jesting. Perhaps down your way you don't even require such a things in winter. My references are from TV, Dexter is always in short sleeve shirts.
I think you should send me a weekly email with similar content to this, is is good for my ego. On a serious note, my self concept very much needed a boot at the moment, you have no idea how much your encouragement helps me.
Perhaps I'll send an email. I over share on steemit enough as it is.

PS.
I haven't used this syllabic rate before, it just came out. The only formal poetry I have utilised came from a suggestion that I base my poetry around a Coca-Cola jingle.
I read one poem in high school. Robert Frost, The road not taken. It didn't do much for me then, and still doesn't impress me much.
I do like Bob Dylan's ramblings, I'm so pleased he got the recognition he deserved.
I have never read Tennyson, I will today.(After I do a little work on my cubist dog painting ).
@girlbeforemirror,
I stand corrected. Crocheter ... not a knitter. :-)
Blackmailer.
I live in Central Florida. We get 2-3 weeks of long-shirt weather per year. The rest of the year is sweltering.
I'm writing a post as we speak. I've written a "poem-in-reply."
He's a direct family ancestor. My family is "soldiers and poets" back as far as the eye can see.

Technical question: How do you get your lines of poetry to appear in "stanza form" (reduced line spacing intra-stanza) like you did in this post?
