Debby,
This is a good analogy to changes toward poetry cycles.
Yes, perhaps you sound like this old lady!

I agree with you.  Poetry isn't really my thing, though I do like 
Robert Frost, and some others, but I'm more into stories, novels, 
and nonfiction if it's something I'm interested in.  It's like 
music.  I may be stuck in an era, but I just don't like much of 
the music now, or from the 90's, is so loud, shrill, just ugly to 
me.  The music in the 60's and 70's is what I grew up with, and 
some of the soft rock from the 80's.  It's also interesting to me 
that as a young person growing up, I did not like symphony or any 
kind of classical music.  Now, I really enjoy it, though I don't 
know whether I know Mozart from Chopin.  I just like it, it 
soothes me, as well as Gregorian chant, and other choir music, as 
well as old hymns, like "Rock of Ages" and "Great Is Thy 
Faithfulness".  Wow, ow sound like an old lady.  (Smile).    
Debby
