Bw, the forum Poetry in Your Native Language is the right place for this poem. Just for remind :) .

 

 

Sorry Aleks this is just an in-joke between old friends you might say. Not the place I agree, please consider it a one off never to be repeated nor belonging on the suggested forum. You do yourself credit as a vigilant guardian of the site. Frank
