| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 03/02/05 at 01:45 PM Sounds like a series developing here. Powerful poetry in the mention of a generation apart and in that highly visual closing line. Well done! |

| Posted by Alex Smyth on 03/03/05 at 01:58 AM Ahh, I've raised the first generation and am now sharing these moments with my first grandson. A perfect picture caught with these words:o) |
| Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 03/04/05 at 02:39 AM A sense of comfortableness, of relaxation, of understanding between the generations comes through this concise but powerful poem. |

| Posted by Karl Waldbauer on 03/07/05 at 07:53 AM When I read this excellent poem, I flipped back to the picture of you and your child. Perhaps one day you'll be fortunate enough to be the subject of a "memory" poem...and the circle goes around and around. |
