Those were the days! Great poem that brings back memories of visits to the country... before I moved to the country and found peace! Very nice Senryu, Abe. And thanks from the Soupers for your thoughtful comment on School Days. There will be more to come!!! It was fun... as you well know from the poem "The Love of Fine Art." in which you contributed to make another super Souper poem! Thanks! and love to you. Love to you. Dane
