Your couplets are just so impressive. I'm adding you to my fave poets. I've enjoyed every poem I've read of yours today, Jimbo :)

Yes! My little boy is 57 years old and bleeding me dry, but I agree - "He's God's special gift." My folks probably thought I arrived with half the content. Born July, 1929 - the great depression - October, 1929. Despite, I grew alarmingly plump. Love,Dave

Great poem, Jimbo, but I hope your nephew was able to obtain the entire book. Like the play on words "au pair" and "pair au" in the title. Very clever! Love, Carolyn
