Thanks for reading and taking time out to respond,Sara. I don't have time to write much poetry these days so it's nice that Brian allows oldies from oldies!

Connie was one of the first people to comment on my poetry as a newcomer to this site and I really valued the time she took to read and give her thoughtful comments. Her poetry was beautiful and will continue to be appreciated.
