Her

There's a strength in theĀ 
Standard of writing that doesn'tĀ 

Weaken to let the head go

Beneath the water:

The accidental daughterĀ 

Whose father aims himself as an

Arrow.

Ā 

Her poetry written with theĀ 

Precision of a hand whose reachĀ 

Into the future is of promisingĀ 

Potential.

She's even bilingual.

Can't people who know only oneĀ 

Language master English?

that'll be the english for ya .. systematically shafted from all directions & having once ruled the waves for centuries, now left to the wither and fade almost into almost oblivion .. I nevertheless am proud to be a patriot and shall always fly the cross of saint George .. and therein lies the reason why we are not good at languages, not even our own .. too lazy

My retorts are honesty taking longer and longer: or to others who somewhat are referred to as the mining outposts call it, The remnants of The Empire. Sorry. I'm a RepublicanĀ

I only know one language...bad English with a lot of 'F' words. I don't even know my own language as the English( one for Nev) banned us from using it a while ago now lol. I believe you are Irish Rory and must have a similar complaint about the potatoes....and other stuff. Now back to your poem, which I haven't a clue to but

'The accidental daughter
Whose father aims himself as an
Arrow.'
is a stunning line...well 3 and I wish I'd thought of it and written it in Welsh which I can't speak. Hugs to all of you...Great convo x
