I agree Edward, to me he is Pablo, Byron and Yeats combined, yet with a uniqueness that is defined by only his talent with a gilded pen that leaves we poets in awe! You have written a gorgeous tribute that shines a spot light on the Bard! Congratulations on your wonderful deserving win! You are both amazing poets who inspire! xxoo
