They are only portrayed to be an ADVERB telling where (against the wind, etc). <br />I see you use it as a verb also, <i>It (the wind) can widdershin our neat-combed hair</i>, in a playful bit of poetry. This is <i>poetic license</i>?<br />..Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982249173214655060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7976656567250803879.post-1212490616954690122010-12-27T11:41:51.751+11:002010-12-27T11:41:51.751+11:00Your rhyme and wit is spot on!
