I have read and re-read several times the four L.L. books I own: A Rose for Winter, Cider with Rosie, As I Walked Out One Midsummer Morning, I Can't Stay Long. There are episodes and phrases in them that sometimes rise up in my mind for no discernible reason. I am ashamed to tell you, Philip, that I didn't know he wrote poetry. But of course, anyone who writes the poetical prose of these books is a poet. How could I have been so stooopid?
Thanks for elucidating me.
