Hi Terry, Thank you so much. I appreciate your comments and happy that you enjoyed it. I wanted the old man to eat some of that good old fashioned hearty & healthy Poetry Soup but I ran out of words to define it and serve it... Have a great day. Take care. Earl

Hi Jan, Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. This is an experiment. I'm trying it out for fun. In the last line, last word, I wanted to use "grazing" but that would be stretching the envelope out of its paper. I hope you have a nice evening. See ya! Earl
