And now for something completely different.

As those of you who have read the Secret Country books know, in that universe, what we would call poetry operates rather as spells. I need a location spell (for illicit use, but never mind that now) and am not having much luck thinking of a fragment of verse that would serve.

I'm not asking anybody to do my research for me. Rather, if you happen to have in your head a bit of verse about finding something or someone, and would think of it at once if you were reading a book in which someone is trying to put together a location spell, by all means leave me a comment.

Have fun, if this is the kind of thing that strikes you as entertaining.

If I use your idea, I'll put you in the acknowledgements to the book.

Which reminds me, I haven't forgotten the dozens of you who kindly wrote at my request to tell me what it was like being a teenager in the 1980's, and at some point in the next few months I'll be asking you to email me about whether you want to be in the acknowledgements and if so under what name.

It just felt to me like this sort of jingly rhythm that's easy to remember.
