Poetic license

Mrs. Nancy Shaw Hanson's poem Sour and sweet always meet (The Jakarta Post, July 27, 1966) is simple, frank, and sharp. I think the writer is talented. She is surely a loyal reader of "Your Letters" who observes and then gives her personal reaction poetically.

Without intending to insult the individuals mentioned in her poem, I would say that I like the poem and share her opinion and feelings.
