| Posted by Anne Engelen on 03/29/04 at 02:53 AM Oh Glenn...I'm breathtaken by the beauty of your words. The warmth that they carry straight to my heart. Blessings my friend. You just gave me the most wonderful present! *superhug* I'm so touched. thank you dearly. |
| Posted by Rula Shin on 03/29/04 at 04:02 AM Unbelievably beautiful tribute, "sap percolating...transforming dormancy into naive frenzy spring" - oh the word choices amaze me!! You managed to touch upon the brilliance of Anne's essence, "she explores her foreign lands to map the Light" - truly a breathtaking ending...how worthy the endeavor to search "for the real" despite "raging oceans" - a worthy ache it is to pine for truth. This is a SHINING dedication to a SHINING poet. |

| Posted by Ashok Sharda on 03/30/04 at 02:52 AM A beautiful tribute to a beautiful person.'sinking into darkness,
she explores
her foreign lands
to map the Light.' Nothing can be more accurate than these lines depicting Anne's basic human urge.

| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 04/02/04 at 02:13 PM Great poem and dedication Glenn. As a suggestion though, I'd drop that first stanza; isn't necessary, doesn't jive with the other two, and thus weakens the piece. |
