Nice poem! I like the image. Sounds like Samwise Gamgee reading it. (I know, wrong book! LOL!)

Oh boy: I am quite thrilled to announce that Tuesday, only eight days after my “Middle-Earth” piece was published, I heard from the NYT that my latest submission was accepted, and is slated for publication soon! Will post on FR when it appears in the online edition!

Paul, that sounds a lot like our current president.... I can picture him doing just that on his way to a work site, just checking up on things, going incognito.

In any case, congrats!

You were arrested? It was probably because you weren’t wearing your mask when you were composing your poem
LOL!
