Be strong, Mr. Mariner, the end will come… someday! :lol:Exquiste, Loku! :yes: :yes: :yes: 🙂
Not the only travelers, Loku, even if there are few comments. I have received many personal appreciations of your efforts from friends and family who read my blog but do not comment here. So be aware that your efforts are more widely appreciated that it might seem. And quite right too! 🙂
Thank you Richard, and to all the other travelers – welcome aboard!. :happy: Please stay close to your Ancient Rhymer and try not to move around becuz there will soon be very 'stormy weather' ahead. I can vouch for that. 😀 :yes:
Thank you Richard. As you know by now I write the Parody for the sheer technical/artistic challenge it presents and the pleasure it gives in the result. I can see it always gives pleasure to you 🙂 I guess you and I are the only travelers here with TAM. Let's try to complete the voyage 😆

Deborah – A very encouraging comment and a clever versified reply, for which I thank you :)When this voyage is done – and it's not over yet – I shall return to its beginning and start the task of writing parody verses for verses 3 – 79. Then when it is all completely parodied I will have paid a complete and full tribute to The Ancient Mariner :up:
