Thanks a lot for the suggestions everyone.

I thought it best to start with a quick skim through Harry's first suggestion.
(Oddly I'd never found that site with search engines). Well I pretty quickly

Once I've made my way through that, I'll decide what to select for further
bed-time reading.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
