Michael,
Did you delete the other poems that were there in your profile? Now I see only a few that were done recently. How did you delete them? why? Is there any way that I can read the rest that I loved so much,when I feel like reading them?

I did not delete any of them. At the bottom of the box that lists my poems you should see the words ” view all work.” If you click on those words the complete list of everything that I have published on the website should appear. If that doesn’t happen, please let me know. I will have to get in touch with Andrew, and find out what is going on if you still cannot see them. It is good to see that you are still around. I hope that everything is going well for you. I did set most of my poems to members only, so that means that you will need to login using your password in order to read them. However, I don’t think that that could be the problem because I assume that you login to the website every time you visit. If you are not logged in to the website, you will not be able to read the other poems. I set them to members only because I’m trying to get some of them published, and the rules for most poetry journals state that only poems that are password protected are considered to be unpublished work on the Internet. In most cases, only unpublished work is eligible for publication. If you’re still having a problem reading them, please contact me again because I would definitely like to get this problem fixed so that you will be able to read them.

Regards,

Michael

I think there was a problem yesterday, because your profile looked completely different than what it looks like today. The words ” view all work” were not there yesterday. But today I see them. So, no problem now. Hope it was a temporary problem!

Hope you’ll get more & more poetic thoughts!

Best Regards,
Nilmini

Is that L’Arc de Triomphe in the background and if so, where did you get that pic?
I assume it is, given the table umbrellas. Have you lived in Paris?

Yes, that is L’Arc de Triomphe. I got the picture at this website: http://www.weeworld.com/

At that website anyone can design their own character. It’s kind of corny, but I like it because the character can display aspects of the person. For example, I have a bonsai tree, so I put a bonsai tree in the picture.

I have never lived in Paris. I did spend one week in Paris in 1979. In 1985, I did spend two weeks in France, but I was in the south of France in Nice. I studied French for seven years at a university Illinois. Sorry, I can’t communicate in French on this website because I use a speech dictation system for typing on my computer and I only have the software for English. I love France. One day maybe I will return for another visit.

but I see that to get your picture you have to give identifying information. I also studied French for many years but have never gone to France. I’ve only used my skills in Québec and on-line. I don’t speak it all that well but read it much better. Thanks for answering.
