on The Twins by Henry Sambrooke Leigh, on August 4
He died in 1883 so all his work would now be PD
on The King's Breakfast by A.A. Milne, on July 21
Has anyone ever written a better poem for a child?

WONDERFUL poetry!
on Matilda Who told Lies, and was Burned to Death by Hilaire Belloc, on March 21
Matilda is one of the poems to which I aspire, it hs it all rhyme, meter, story and above all brilliant wit.
Hilaire Belloc is beyond any doubt a great poet, that he put his talents to making the world smile just adds to that.
on Gunga Din by Rudyard Kipling, on February 14
There may have been better poets than Kipling
But VERY VERY few.

Until his world was torn apart by the Great War his was the undisputed voice of the common soldier, and it still reads true today. Of course you couldn't get away with writing this today
