  4. I found this through Paisley, thought I try it

    I like the idea very much and it certainly will introduce me to new poets & writers such as W. H. Auden and perhaps other blogger writers as well

  5. Thanks for your comment and the invitation.I apologise that I don't participate in prompt writings often due to lack of time.As u must have seen my poems come after a long time n the subjects get engendered automatically.So I politely decline the offer.I'd love to help your site however in every possible way.Also I'd like to read more from you....pls leave the url of your writings on my blog or mail.

    Thanks
