Happy birthday Bro. Owen,
May you reap all the good that you've sown.
I known this limerick's quite bad,
And it's really too sad
For a poet of the stature you've grown The Inauguration of Robert Burns
as Poet Laureate of Canongate Kilwinning LodgeWilliam Stewart Watson, 1846 (Bro.Owen hosts the Masonic Poets'Society site) |

To you I must humbly bow And express, as a Freemason's vow My thanks for your service, Though I hardly deserve it, For my verse, mostly doggerel, Bow-wow! Really, I'm flattered by the greetings that are rather more than the generic "Happy Birthday" of the many other forums. I apologize for being so long in answering, too. Too many irons in the fire, and this fursugganah virus-ridden computer also needs to go in the fire! One small quibble -- you have an old, outdated URL for the Masonic Poets Society. The current one (and has been for about 2 years now) is mpoets.org . The one at masonic_poets_society we can't get taken down, but it hasn't been updated since July '08, and all poets from P thru Z have been erased from it. The newer site has about twice as many poems, including poets in French and Spanish now, as well as English! |

Thanks Bro. Owen, for pointing out this fault, akin to Link Rot. I have now corrected the links to your current, improved (and impressive) site. |
