Go to Life in the fast lane--where's the on ramp?

- Go to Trees. Criticism. Lessons learned.
Actually, I've seen some pretty bad poems in my time. They usually were not about trees, but probably should have been.

She was the valedictorian, and she has now retired as dean of Social Sciences at Western WA Univ. Not only that, everyone liked her.

Well I suppose everything is rubbish to some Pat. I write plenty I know. I suppose it depends on the majority view. It is the same as art some will pay for owning a prestigious piece that is probably valid in the eyes of those who can afford to buy. You could tell us what you would have said out of interest.
