POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
1. Tom. Tom Billsborough was from England. Sadly, he has passed away. Tom wrote delightful poems on a variety of subjects, including at least seven poems about his cat, Mr. Purry. After Mr. Purry passed away, I wrote a poem about him, called ‘The Return of Mr. Purry'.2. Geeta [Radhakrishna Menon] is an excellent poetess who has never said an unkind word about any person or any poem, as far as I can tell. 3. Valsa George is a fine poetess in India. Her first name means ‘Waltz' in Portuguese.4. Barney Rooney, a fine poet from Ireland. I used to love listening to his own voice on his poems, but now all I can get is that obnoxious computer voice. 5. Laurie Van Der Hart and I used to communicate a lot. She was originally from South Africa but moved to some other country in or near Europe; I can't remember where. She left Poem Hunter because of all the noisy ads promoting war games. 6. Pamela Sinicrope also left Poem Hunter a few years ago. That was not her real name. Like many others, she used a pseudonym. Daniel Brick knew her personally and told me this. Daniel has also passed away since that time. 7. Kumarmani Mahakul is one of the nicest gentlemen I know. He has left probably hundreds of comments on my poems. He once gave me the title of ‘Heavenly Fortune'. I gave him the title of ‘The Gentle Giant of Poem Hunter'. 8. I already used the name Linda Bella Wassermeister in Expander 03. Who else has eight syllables in his/her name? 9. Bernedita Rosinha Pinto's name has always enchanted me because of my love for the Portuguese language. I have lived 50 months of my life in Brazil. In fact, I was living in Brazil when I first started on Poem Hunter. Although Bernedita lives in India, her name is one hundred percent Portuguese.
