Hidden Poem Found
Recently, the Guardian had a story about a hidden poem that was found recently. It was written by William Wordsworth's second cousin, Emmeline Fisher.
The poem reads, in part:
Bones of our wild forefathers, Oh forgive if now we pierce the chambers of your rest.
Which brings me to the question that begs to be answered: Who cares? With that question put for I present...
