It said beginning of December last, so I didn't think it was too long ago.

I know you've said you're n a good place at the moment, I do pay attention - just wanted to put that out there for you. Just in case.

I don't really enjoy romantic poetry either. The poetry of The Romantics, on the other hand - Coleridge, Byron, Keats, both Mr&Mrs Shelley - I appreciate massively.

Wordsworth though.... I think in a piece I published on here, I might have suggested I would be happy to see him stick his daffodils where the sun doesn't shine, lol.

There's a lot of subjectivity involved in personal preference though isn't there, so I'm definitely not criticising you for liking Wordsworth - and I can see what you mean about his use of words when you're first discovering powerful, influential, imagery rich poetry.

I'm extremely glad that you happened upon something which inspired you.
