On the index to The Ghazal Page, I announce a second radif challenge, using "moon" this time. I've received several ghazals in response but would definitely like to see more.
The original announcement had two different closing dates, June 1 and June 30. I've corrected that. The "real" date is June 30.

I chose 'The Poet's Life" as the category for this post, but it's pretty much my life, with recent experiences I don't wish on anyone.
There is no May issue of The Ghazal Page yet for reasons sketched out below. I hope to do a May/June double issue in the next few weeks.
What happened? Starting around March 25, I've been seriously ill, hospitalized for five with pneumonia, and nearly two weeks with heart failure, resulting in surgery. I'm home now, can do some work but don't yet have access to me computer with all the Ghazal Page material.
So that's the very brief version. I will follow through on commitments to publish ghazals and respond to submissions as soon as I can.
May you all be well.
