Sonnet from London on The Writer's Almanac

[Martin Mc Carthy]

This is my first time reading this sonnet, Jonathan, and it's very good, so I'm glad you've republished it. I especially like the way you worked a bit of Shakespeare into it. How appropriate!

[Jonathan Potter]

Thank you, Martin. I always appreciate your perceptive and generous comments.

[Gary Spangler]

Fabulous, Jonathan.

[Jonathan Potter]

Thank you, Gary

[Rafa Martin]

[Jonathan Potter]

Thank you, Rafa

[Stanley Wotring]

Fabulous!

[Jonathan Potter]

Thanks Stan!

[Ann Collins]

You are the girl I'm dreaming of within

My dream of dreaming as I climb the steep

The spiral stair to seek you prayerfully

Oh man. Swoon-worthy, Jonathan!!! And I loved hearing Garrison read it along with those gorgeous photographs of you and your love along the Thames.

[Jonathan Potter]

Thank you, Ann!

[Sharon Hudson]

Beautiful, Jonathan!

[Jonathan Potter]

Thank you Sharon

[John Martin]

I'm not quite sure what a 'London' hand is.

[Jonathan Potter]

Like a fish isn’t quite sure what water is.

[John Martin]

I wonder if I write in my 'London' hand? In which case it's pretty illegible. And far from pretty.

[Karen E Sandberg]

So very gorgeous, Jonathan. And there's a bit Shakespeare in it.

[Jonathan Potter]

Thank you, Karen
