    1. Hi Robert, I apologize that you've been having trouble getting removed. This is the first time I've seen a request from you. I have removed you from the mailing list now.

      1. Dear Dylan,

        I am sure when Robert Manchester mentioned this elsewhere, that I guided him to top left to subscriptions where any of us can quietly unsubscribe.

        A shame, as this is a lovely and quietly inspiring website, deep bow to your good self and your editors.

        warm regards,
        Alan

  1. An acquaintance wrote a book of poems about the passing of her mother-in-law entitled "Elder Moon." Your lovely haiku echoes this waning. Very beautiful.
