I’ve been reading your poems – they shine with beauty,
a very lovely thing – something I’m very thirsty for,
and so I am grateful to you for bringing them out
for us to see.
I also love your description of yourself -
I feel as if I’m reading about someone in
an ancient place
and then I am so happy that I know you
NOW
and in person!

Thank you for your kind comments regarding my poems. I have been enjoying yours as well. It is refreshing to read some WELL-CRAFTED nature poetry, for a change.
As you said, finding excellent poets in the realm of the blogosphere is difficult, but all the more rewarding and satisfying when you do!
I am glad you found me, and I in turn have found you. And I am most interested to read more of your work.

Yoo hoo…I don’t want to sully your poetry with news and do feel free to delete this but I wanted to give you a heads up:

Keep up the good work; you write with a strong sense of spirituality and a conviction that echoes off the language.

Dear PBS, I have started a new blog Thinking Screens, entirely devoted to cinema and my teaching experiences. Will be glad if you visit it. My earlier blog is not closed, but is in hiatus.
