Cb Tribute Contest One: Jan Allison

Jan, now that I can, I once again claim,
you are one of the main reasons I remain.
I thank you for giving my confidence a boost,
and being my friend. You rule my roost,
on Poetrysoup.

Glad you agree Keith. From day one she, along with Silent One, praised my feeble efforts until I went from 98 to 28 on the top 100 contest poets. I am indebted to her.
