I don't have time to post all the links to them right now, sorry, but here is Harbours, which Janis Freegard kindly posted as a Tuesday Poem back in October:<br /><br /><a href="http://janisfreegard.com/2011/10/31/tuesday-poem-harbours-by-tim-jones/" rel="nofollow">http://janisfreegard.com/2011/10/31/tuesday-poem-harbours-by-tim-jones/</a>Tim Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14856414700019368658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264914780516321436.post-11397969685219629922012-05-16T21:23:11.461+12:002012-05-16T21:23:11.461+12:00Good to see your work Tim.

I have written one poem for one of them, and none for the other.<br /><br />Helen - thanks!

But now that men are quite completely explained you want to throw your poems to the world unchaperoned - I too would have misgivings about such such a move if I was in your shoes.

I always wondered what the less popular did with their evenings, so it is most interesting from an anthropological point of view.
