Few can remember having heard, read 'a poem'; miniscule have ever imagined..trying to Make One! Yes, we (still) have a "Poet Laureate". Wanna guess how many of the new-Trotskyites know who he is, or have read .. a poem, since it was part of a course? (certainly Not part of any MBA course) And a Surgeon General - is there still one of those? I seem to recall the last one being a bit too uppity for the smooth running of the Play. Poetry went out (along with debate classes in HS) when culture became spelled kultur - remember? Wanna do Bach, too?

Post #218,254 by imqwerky 8/8/05 7:56:13 PM Reply	Alas I have fond memories of my maternal grandmother reading James Whitcomb Riley and Wordsworth, among others to me as a child. Upon graduation from high school, she presented to me a lovely, leather-bound book of 100 best-loved poems. Her inscription reads: "To Thyself be true,so honestly, steadfastly true, That neither friend nor foe can say He has been deceived in you." (which is a paraphrased version of Shakespeare's "Polonius' Advice to Laertes" from "Hamlet") She was a wonderful woman. Peace, Amy Illegitimi non corborundum.
