mon dieu! what a talent and a heart. ..
killer-scrabble, princess-quoting, duck-of-all-nuances poet in every sense of the syllables. ..
she can wound with those words
and you have blessed her with this.
what a kind and kind.red spirit.

Charlie is very worthy of this fine compliment you've penned, Karla. I love the picture, too. Since we're a couple of weeks away from Cinco de Mayo, the picture fits the festive atmosphere.

Thanks for giving back to the poets who inspire us all.

Hey!!! Way cool :D ...I say, I say, I say, Son... You give me a fine compliment that I don't wholely deserve, but I sure enjoy working with you and all the authors I read. Thank you.

I love this picture you found... see those fabulous colors flash? And you're (your?) right (write?), I see words that colorful. You must have climbed inside my mind to get that shot? Words/phrases and thoughts stream colours constantly through my mind.

...and you used the Tanka form!--meaningful! I thank you, dear friend. --Charlie
