Gracious, I'm quite the relative newcomer to your lovely home online - I admit that I am surprised you would consider gracing me with one of your verses so soon.
I suppose my main factors are gardening, classic Doctor Who, Tolkien, writing, poetry and church history - but I really have only shown a tiny portion of that here, I am still simply enjoying soaking up the wisdom and entertaining commentary. Perhaps it would be more of a 'connection' to here that I am Starflower's mom and have known dear Vanessa for nigh on eight years now through my own lotr site, so I don't seem too much a stranger.
btw, I'm greatly, greatly enjoying your extended ballad for Sophia Renee - haven't finished it yet, but getting there... I'm to where they're going to be wed and he's building a house. Heavens, the amount of work and research, etc. you've put in, and the resulting compelling tale, certainly a work worthy of admiration and readership.
