Gold has less value

I'm gutted. I've lost a note book of poems. You only realise the true personal value of things when they are gone.

Being wiped out from work has prevented me from keeping up to date electronic records of my poems or updating this blog in recent months. However, fortunately, I had typed up in full the key ones from the 30 or so that were in the book. Nevertheless, having also typed up the titles of those that I didn't have time to type out in full simply means that I know what I have lost. A few poems never made it to my electronic records in any shape or form at all so will be lost completely. It's a lesson in learning to let things go if anything.

Note to self: type poems up regularly in future and back up at all times!

I'll re post if the book turns up - bright pink cover with white swirls and an orange number "5" sticker if anyone who knows me happens to find it.
