Bill, I read this last night. Ha! And what an exciting Saturday night I had. I loved it!
IMHO, your poems about your life are a national treasures. I felt your pain as you described community strife. And I reveled in the blessings you received as a husband, lover, father, grandfather and son. The overall impression your poems left me with was that life is beautiful and well worth living. Even in the one's that reminisced 9/11, weren't filled with bitterness and hatred, but reminded us to endear the lives of those who passed on that day. You brought them to life, by showing a slice of their life. (Did you lose a child in the towers?)
I will cherish the book and read it again and again and again.
It is good to finally see you here, Bill.
To those reading this, please see my book review, Kicking Leaves Barefoot under articles.
You will love this book.
