poetry

Three Blind Mice…

I was “doing” some poetry the other day. Obviously, I have let “the verse side” down because I came across a poem by a poet I hadn’t heard of (of which I hadn’t heard) – Billy Collins who was Poet Laureate of the US from 2001 to 2003. I really must “do” poetry more often.
