Good for you to marry the man you love. And thank you for this poetry in which you find rhymes that don't singsong the poems out of proportion. Each is thoughtful and loving.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05723639294340760325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-3389806448073045002019-03-18T23:41:03.507-04:002019-03-18T23:41:03.507-04:00How lovely to come over here from our conversation...How lovely to come over here from our conversation a few minutes ago on Google+, Karen, and find you featured. Your poems are very immediate, bringing each situation vividly to life.<br />I have a brother who has lived in Auckland for several decades now, but I have never managed to visit NZ. (He keeps popping back to Oz instead.) It certainly looks to be a beautiful country, judging from photos. Yes, shocking that the illusion of safety has been shattered – but I do so admire your PM for her response.<br />On a happier note, lovely to read of your romance – and wow: all this AND he cooks!<br />Many thanks, Sherry and Karen, for this lovely interview.<br />Rosemary Nissen-Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05913841031559499568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-48814997005903674402019-03-18T23:20:28.674-04:002019-03-18T23:20:28.674-04:00I always have said that I'm an open book with ...

After the Port Arthur massacre in Tasmania in 1996, Australia introduced quite restrictive conditions for gun ownership. I was appalled to find out yesterday that these conditions have been eased to allow some automatic weapons to be purchased. Will we never learn?
