Me ... I'm Canadian. I've been back a few times. But, I'm happy when I see that big maple leaf on the plane that's going to take me back home to the Great White North
Luvvly Eric -Browning was one of the 5 poets I had for O-level.

Of Rupert Brooke I only knew "He is Gone" part of the 1914 sonnets which a friend sent me - it is beautiful, as was he. (The poet and the friend!)
