Biggus, it is a very famous poem and a timely one...

PS The title helps too.

Thank you, Malone. I have stumbled across the poem, and am sad to say that a beautiful spring day has been ruined, because I have never heard of it. I am a Philistine.

I have got to the same place as Buddy at post #1 but despite the various hints I have still not managed to join the two ends. I can't see how to represent the 1993 entry. Could someone please provide a hint for a more obtuse person?

I am completely stumped on the endgame. Got a full grid, but can't see anywhere to place a poet after editing.

Could someone give me a hint, maybe the adjective, or where you were looking when the PDM happened?

Cruciluci, you’re looking on a diagonal, slightly off centre

Thank you Quisling, I remember now. I had been looking for the wrong thing.

Nice full grid. Stumped for the endgame though. Am I just going around changing letters at random and googling whether they appear in a poem? Seems like a pain.

In spite of reading all the posts here today I still can’t find a poet or a poem that gives me at least 3 verses although Malone at #11 tells us it’s timely and famous….please drop another hint???
