So when you retire will be ideal then Rosie, once you've got over your joy at your freedom, and the tiredness has left you..and if you really want to you WILL do it I'm sure. You must have a talent for it I'm thinking...and yes it was Pixie. She's written some really nice stuff.
..and don't you Dare to even let such a naughty thought cross your mind..but I suppose no one will stay on G Ups forever..you know ..until the day we die..?

I've just started facilitating another 'With Love' writing course with people who've never written anything except letters in their lives. They're getting the hang of it and thoroughly enjoying it. One of them is a twin so I read this poem to them. When the identical twins I knew were about 8 years old one of them said, 'Why is Debbie in the mirror, I'm supposed to be there.' She had no idea her sister looked exactly the same as she did. The poem is called 'Double Feature'.

I know somehow there's two of me but don't know which is which,
Am I me or am I she - the other one of me.
I know another girl lives here, I'm not sure who she is
Things don't seem to be too clear, there's more than one of me, I fear.
I'm often called a different name when Mummy's friends call in.
What really puts me in a spin is when they call me 'Twin'
That's not my name, perhaps it's hers, the other one of me.
So - am I me, or am I she, Oh dear! who can I be?
My sister says I'm silly when I say there's two of me.
She says there's only one you see, the other one is SHE.

Cheers, Pixie

Oh! I think this poem is in the wrong place. I do get mixed up with some of these threads. How does a poem come with the copyright thread? I must be getting tired. Cheers Pixie

I see some of you are interested in publishing work. Perhaps you would find a New Zealand self-publishing site of interest. If so, try the following link:
http://www.google.co.nz/search?hl=en&q=publishme.co.nz&meta=&rlz=1W1HPAA_en&aq=1s&oq=Publish+Me
or do a Google search for PUBLISH ME
Not sure though GeeBee whether they can advise re copyright matters.
