Thank you, Constance. ^WW^ and I have been going on with banters for at least a year. He is quite a 'clown' that some on Soup may not have seen that side of. And, he is a great, versatile poet who has a big heart for others. Choosing was so difficult that I started not to enter the contest for fear of offending someone based on the number of great poets and friends I have acquired on Soup.

You are absolutely right but it was written for men. Most men are reluctant to heap praise on other men but will lavish it on women. In all honesty, I had started a list of women poets but I am so enamored by a huge number of females on Soup and didn't want to leave any of them out. You would certainly have been on that list.

HI, Patricia! WW and I have been kidding each other on Soup for months now. He is a great poet and inspiration to me and we share a bond of friendship as close as brothers even though we've never met. Thank you for your first visit to my work!

Lol...I do love to see a good bromance unfold. Great tribute to a very witty and talented guy :)

Absolutely! And I count him among the top male poets. Poets like Bob Hinshaw, Tom Cunningham, Silent One, Tim McGuire, Greg Barden, Emile Pinet, Charlie Messina, Edward Ibeh, Gershon Wolf --- of course, there are others I could name but these are among the ones who most often comment on my work.
