"I loved reading your poetry. I especially liked "A Revelation". I am not alone in wondering about the past and about if dreams came true or fell through whilst looking at something (whether tombstone or building) older than myself. I always wonder about who else walked where I walked and why...I even wonder about seeing shoes in the middle of the freeway. Were they left there by a homeless person? What is his story? Where is he? Did it fly out of the back of someone's pickup? What prompted it? A bum in the road? Did someone throw it there? Oh well =), I suppose we all do our fair share of wondering. I also enjoyed reading "Tainted Snow". You have a rare gift of bringing others into your work and letting them "feel" what you felt whilst writing the poem. =) You have done an excellent job on your site and it definitely shows! Therefore, I would like to present you with the Writer's Par Excellence Award. You should be proud of this award because you certainly deserve it." Tammi
