If poor grammar arises from bad punctuation do you criticise the punctuation and ignore the grammar or point out both?

Jeeze jen.. my take would be to criticise neither.
Not on here anyway.

But..I’m sure my lingo-ranger friend Teldorado here would say go hell for leather on both.
The initial error bringing about the conditions for numerous conspiracies of negligence.
Strictly speaking he’d be right..
And he’s very strict.

… And I wouldn’t even mind, you hardly have a perfect record on this kinda thing Telstar.
None of us do.
Oh and if you wish to go down the road of STRICT linguistics, it’s not grammar you are choosing to scrutinise here, it’s PUNCTUATION.
So your utter plankery is doubly compounded.

Now.. go suck a duck! :P

Ok … lets be having the corrected version then.

Anyone notice I got Pete’s Teapot back :D

Well, the most glaring mistake is the use of an apostrophe. :roll:

Telboy… You’re such a disease :P

THE EASTER FLOWER

Far from this foreign Easter damp and chilly
My soul steals to a pear-shaped plot of ground,
Where gleamed the lilac-tinted Easter lily
Soft-scented in the air for yards around;

Alone, without a hint of guardian leaf!
Just like a fragile bell of silver rime,
It burst the tomb for freedom sweet and brief
In the young pregnant year at Eastertime;

And many thought it was a sacred sign,
And some called it the resurrection flower;
And I, a pagan, worshiped at its shrine,
Yielding my heart unto its perfumed power.
