I mean ever word I say, Jack. I truly treasure your poetry. The feeling is mutual! You brighten my days, so I must, of course, do the same for you. You are a very special friend of mine, and I am having a BLAST reading your work! Always, Laura

I like that 'in the Land of Jack' thing. Dragon's confused. I'd almost got him to understand it's Canada... I think that boat just sailed. He'll never believe me now!... And Grandpa Troll's now laughing and willing to make a bet with me ... that I'll NEVER convince Dragon ever again!

Right on my dear Judy!!! I feel a special bond with this young lady! She's in the process of going back and reviewing a bunch of my older stuff... quite a challenge ahead of her! Not sure her over-the-top praise is all that warranted but it sure does brighten my days!
