I am so sorry. The poem is brilliant, isn't it, and for those who have lived through many, they might not like to read it, too close perhaps. Thank you, & thinking of you!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26800186.post-89511242391984721812012-10-27T06:00:21.679-07:002012-10-27T06:00:21.679-07:00This poem makes hurricanes into HERicanes and HISi...This poem makes hurricanes into HERicanes and HISicanes.

What...Hope you're keeping earthbound and dry. <br /><br />What an intriguing poem you shared. Love the way the Patricia Smith humanized these storms and how despite their naughtinesses, which were bad enough, their avoidance of that terrible storm reinforces to us how much worse it was than all the others.Violet N.http://vnesdolypoems.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26800186.post-2684137425780758412012-10-26T18:39:23.817-07:002012-10-26T18:39:23.817-07:00Just came over to your blog to see how you're ...Just came over to your blog to see how you're doing.
