For first grade? No kidding? This is beyond outstanding, in my opinion! Remarkable, Gail!... Now how 'bout some poems from 2nd or 3rd grade... or high school?! ~ Gershon

Hi Gershon, Thanks for the compliment! Sort of embarrassing to say I didn't write anything else until high school. I guess no inspiration hit me until then. - Gail
