**British Isles:
England, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, Wales,
&‘smaller islands', from which all distant travel ….once was by sails.
They are all part of Europe, though many of you may not, it, know.
Some of my ancestors came from thence; ‘westward' they did go.
Now I'll seek out poems from poets listed by P H as from the "Isles".
Some poems may bring to some readers groans, some, i hope, smiles.
Many will be from My Poem List, gathered over my P H-stay years.
Feel free to respond with laughter, elation, disgust, maybe even tears.
In one previous showcase I featured poets of the Indian subcontinent.
If you're from someplace else, please don't …. much anger, at me, vent.
Instead, drop me a line aka send to me, Bri Edwards, a P H note.
Perhaps I'll feature an area of the Earth for which you'll cast your vote.
Most months I follow no strict guidelines as to geography or topic.
My planning is mine alone usually.Please don't think I'm myopic!
(March …..14th …..2019; poems to appear here by April 1st)

Congrats Bri for having been so punctual in presenting each month's showcase on time for the last couple of years. It needs much effort! It is not easy to select poets from a particular geographical location. We from the country of India were the first to be honored thus. Now the poets from the British Isles have got that distinction! Wish you all the Best dear friend!
