Posted by Charlie Morgan on 01/05/10 at 02:10 AM ...if she's won your poet-heart, the gal you descirbe wins mine too buddy. i love you way of getting her visages in the e'nentime...a wonderful brain drain of comfort she is to you and the thousands she touches also. you bring her to me in words, a second helping, eh? |
Posted by Ken Harnisch on 01/05/10 at 03:48 AM Sterling testament to the power of words and those who labor to create them, George. Kudos to Patricia and you for channeling her powerful message. |
Posted by Olivia Martin on 01/05/10 at 01:14 PM After reading this I can see why your "poet-friend" gives such inspiration; though I am not familiar with her work, I can see you following in her steed. Great write! |

Posted by Rachel Bennett on 01/08/10 at 04:08 AM This is a straightforward, apt tribute, the sort of thing anyone would love to read about his- or herself. =) |
Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 01/08/10 at 01:09 PM words are words and words are precious gifts to hear in our solitude, and words mean so much more when they are uttered by those we love. and words for words sake can be a blur, save when those certain people take them out of their blur states and helps to bring them into focus. |
Posted by Laura Doom on 01/13/10 at 01:28 PM An interesting variation on tunnel/funnel vision, one of those occasions on which presentation both reflects and contrasts with content -- words my appear as 'black and white', but the underlying ideas seldom are :> |
Posted by Glenn Currier on 01/13/10 at 04:22 PM Thanks George for this tribute and invitation. You make me want to know this woman. I like the simple quick lines that do not dawdle but cast a gentle light upon the subject. Good write, buddy. |
