Many thanks,
Clemmie
Clemmie,
You put your poem into a SharePost and format it as you want. We won't be changing the formatting. So, however it looks when you submit it is how it will end up looking. We just need everyone to adhere to lines of no more than 80 characters, including spaces, and poem no longer than 60 lines.

Hugs, Clemmie
You're welcome, Clemmie, and thanks!
Did you watch the "Migraine Blues" video?
