A Little Feather

A poem I wrote was published In a children’s magazine, Which definitely isn’t, In my life, something routine. Accompanied by illustrations Covering the page, The hope is that it’s something With which readers will engage. To see my name in print like that Both thrills and satisfies, A little feather in my cap Acknowledgement supplies.

Congratulations Ilene, it's uplifting to see something you've written in a book. Couple of years ago a publisher that deals with children's school books contacted me to use one of my poems I thought it was spam, turned out it was genuine, I asked them if I could purchase a copy and they sent me a complimentary copy, I was over the moon.

Thanks, Tom! I got a couple of copies of this magazine as well. The most surprising thing is that I was contacted by the editor via Soup Mail!
