Ode to a Blog (and all you lot! :-))

Ode to a Blog (& all you lot!  : - ) )

By Dawn Van Win

How do I value thee

Let me count the ways...

In times of Covid crisis

When the whole world feels shut down

You are a valued safe space

Where our work is shared around

All members and the wider span

Of folk around the globe

Can come and read 

And share our tales 

of mystery and hope,

Adventure, joy and derring-do

And subjects many varied 

(I’m listing just a few!)

This magic space in a virtual sea

A home to share and so connect

Our words and rhymes 

With one another

All members of RLWG

Our blog meister extraordinaire

Len of course, deserves a mention

All of this here brought to exist

By his ever true attention

Not only posting to and fro 

All work we do submit

But timely updates

Informing all of latest numbers hit

The times indeed 

‘They are a-changing’

As Bob so rightly sang

so in virtual spaces

Like our blog 

Our hat, coat and verse we hang

Until we all may meet again safely sharing words and tea

There’s not much more that I can say

‘cept I miss our writers' gang!
