Please answer TRUE or FALSE to each

statement, then leave another one

for the next person, and I will begin with ~

[Angharad]

True, although I forget most of it fairly quickly. I generally adore science. 

What was your favorite subject in school? (I assume you wanted to teach it.)

[Westerly_2]

Started out loving Science best, then switched to English

you enjoy rhyming verse and free verse equally well

[Angharad]

True, for reading. To really enjoy any poem, it has to be well done (in my opinion, of course). 

You have at least three favorite poets. If so, name them (sneaky me).

[Westerly_2]

Bukowski, Updike, Dylan Thomas

Your favorites?

[Angharad]

Philip Larkin, Pablo Neruda, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and so many more. I love your choices too.

Do you have poems which you memorized as a child? If so, name one. 

[Westerly_2]

I think we had to memorize  " O Captain, my captain<" but I don't remember it now

Have you forgotten most of what you had to learn by rote

[Angharad]

Yes!  And--OMG--I also memorized "O Captain, my Captain"!  Oddly, I do remember most of it. I say "oddly" because my memory has always been a sieve.

You wish you had an eidetic memory. (Another of Draughn's many gifts. I kind of coveted that one. Haha!)

[Westerly_2]

true

you have a code, to remember the order of the planets

[Angharad]

False--I should.

You have a code to remember notes on the lines of the treble clef and another for the bass clef.

[Westerly_2]

False - musically illiterate. I'm hopeless

(Man Very Early Made a Jar Serving Useful Needs Perfectly)

You think you might possibly put the above to good use

[Angharad]

True--avoiding making a fool of myself the next time I'm discussing the solar system!

When talking about some momentous happening in your life and you say "I shall NEVER forget it," you now inwardly say, "I hope!"

[Westerly_2]

hahaha. Yeah

you have a post-it note beside your front door, with a list of things not to forget, such as glasses, keys, etc.
