Thank you for mentioning Pt 1 of the interview with Janet. I'm looking forward to seeing her film when it's completed.

Thank you for posting my poem Broken Flowers Glynn! This one was particularly meaningful because it is a true snap shot from about a month ago. Appreciate you reading and sharing it. Thank you.

Oh, Glynn, I am so completely honored by your mention of my poetry attempt. So sorry I saw this so late in the day, but have been off-line and dwelling in The Glade. I'm sure you know what that means! :)
Love and blessings, my friend!
