Gene, I can find no words to adequately relate the emotions racing through my mind. Your Happy Birthday wish to me on this day leaves me very emotionally stirred. To you my dear friend I owe a debt of gratitude for your unwavering support, kindness and mentoring. Getting to know you and the many fine artists in the authors den I call my friends have been among the most rewarding experiences of my life. Thank you, thank you and may peace and joy be always with you. Jon Michael

A lovely Birthday tribute to a friend and fellow poet. I am sure that the best birthday gift that Jon received was to have a wonderful, caring friend like you write a poem about him. The poem and you are both very special. Hugs, Joy L. Hale
