Had to smile. I love your underbar commentaries.

brought a tear to my eye, i love so the embrace of words by Alfred and again by Tom ... many friends feel overwhelmed with the woes of the world these days, i'll presently send them this magnificent recitation... lovely !

Wonderfully read. Your voice has a wonderful sound and you read with expert expression. Thank you! Bravo!!! Your added notes were very interesting and enlightening. I can also see why you left out the last verses. They strike a brazen note of jingoism that does not fit well with the first parts of the poem -- but may have fit well with his laureateship and its demands. I prefer to leave out the carnal innuendo, but fully understand your noting its presence.

I know, I thought near the beginning it was going to link all the beautiful things in life so we can feel incredibly happy, but then it tells us of how evil is also what makes the world go round. And how much it is needed in order to feel like life is worth striving for. Not saying that a world of complete and utter piece would be boring, but it's something that will never happen since some of us just hate life itself. At least that's what I took from it. SpokenVerse always chooses the right poems.

Alfred Austin's poetry is the best poetry I have ever read! Better than Wanker Owen, Divey Thomas, Ted Poos, Sylvia Shat, Seamus Peabrain and all that 20th and 21st century modern poetry shit! Except for some poets but this is better than poets like Sylvia Plath. I don't even understand her garbage poetry!
