It is interesting when some work is given, completed (for now), and then given away. We copyright, we request permission, we honor, and even try to stay organized. I use the search feature on my own blogs a lot. What did I write last year at this time, or the year before?

What did we do before search engines? 🙂 I am so glad we have them.

I feel, um quite out of it sometimes. I just figured out after two years or so how to ‘search’ for my own stuff on blogs anyway. Though I tried it for a particular item this morning and well maybe because I haven’t been using categories properly – couldn’t find what I was looking for so I had to go to the posts list section. You’ve gotten me curious now…
Thanks for your verse…yes the grass is tall enough, again…to mow. 🙂
This was the third stanza of something I wrote July 3, 2012
‘What language or lessons can I find
Twisted in a spider’s silent patience
Just waiting to be served by what ever falls
Generously upon her protected silky plate’

Dear Jules, I am always learning. This blog theme has the Search feature at the top of the home page, in the right corner. However for the theme I am using for my “Grief And Acceptance” poetry site, I needed to add the Search option as a widget.
I try different words too. As you say, many ways to locate information, and I’m sure that was part of the design work for the WordPress dashboard.
Right now I am slowly reviewing this blog, and the Archives help a lot too.
Thank you, Ellen
I’ll add the link for the site I mentioned: http://griefandacceptance.wordpress.com

I also often use the search feature on my own blog to find posts that I can remember–but can’t remember exactly when they originally appeared.

I use the search facility, also, to see which image I posted at the same time last year – or the year before. I find it interesting to note the differences (or similarities) in weather.
I love your poem. The grasses are particularly beautiful here in the UK this year.
