You went above and beyond any encouragement I could ever hope for. This elegant, symmetrical, perfect gift puts the most validating stamp of approval on my vision and my purpose in writing. How can I thank you? There are no words.
On the contrary, I should be thanking you, and I do, for your Poetry. No comment on your Poems would exist without them, and the Poems are always the First cause and the Last word in their authority over the comments. I am privileged to be able to watch your collection expand, poem by poem, as posted by a living Poet; whereas, during my undergrad years, I could only imagine what it must have been like for the dead Poets that I then admired. I could only, then, imagine what that would have been like; now, four decades later, and a little more mature than I was, I am able to experience the live version. And for that privilege, I am most humbly and heartily grateful to you.
I'm profoundly moved and uplifted by your very kind expression. More than a few of my poems would never have seen the light of day without your encouragement. You're an inspiration. God bless.
