My Man

.

        "Am I a man
              Pops"

           "You are
               son

               My 
        Spider man
               My 
          Iron man
         And when 
 I am old and frail son

           I pray

              My
        Superman"

Dear James, Hope this finds You and YOURS Healthy and High in the Spirit. The Proud "Pops" I love to see a family wove together with The PEN Excellent. Could "His smiles and hugs" be rented I could use them. Wishing YOU and YOURS a Very Merry Christmas and a Healthy,Prosperous, and Blessed New Year. Sorry about not keeping in touch. LOVE ALWAYS and FOREVER YOUR Eternal Liege...Harry

This is so sweet, I really like it, JAmes. I scanned all eight of your poetry pages and could not find your 2011 poem. If it is about insanity, go ahead and enter it in Nathan's contest!
