An Ode to Victor Hugo
One hundred and twenty-five years
Since your death
(The funeral was attended by two million Frenchmen. I saw the photo)
The greatest, the grandest, the most prodigious writer of ‘em all
(he wrote 20 pages of prose or eight pages of verse every day)
An ode to Les Miserables and the glory of Jean Valjean
A star was created in the nineteenth century.
May you shine on in the winter skies, Victor Hugo
An Occasional Story 
Victor Huge is a special favourite. I did struggle a bit with The Hunchback of Notre Dame but loved it nonetheless.
Yes, I had trouble with the Hunchback. Les Miserables was the tops.
“The greatest, the grandest, the most prodigious writer” !!! — Love, Love this post, Bumba!
Thank you, thank you.
he wrote 20 pages of prose every day: so we are waiting for your next book!
or, maybe better, 20 songs arranged with harp and piano every year?
The second is no great problem. As for the first, I must average half a page a day..
how many songs are uploaded
now on your wordpress account?
Is there any content list?
I have a Library section on the right hand side of blog page. It says there are 166 songs, but there are a lot of repeats. There is no content list or sub-categories, which I suppose I should add. I’ve noticed that no one ever notices the “Library” section, and nearly nobody reads anything except the latest posts. Yes, I have a lot of songs up there already – as do you. I don’t think anyone is going to touch le grand homme. Isaac Asimov wrote a stupendous amount of books.
Sorry,typo, it shouldve been written:
