I can stand a few more years of "earthly strife" - my grandchildren are not ready to wave me goodbye yet.

Your ability, Milton, to write a variety of verse certainly impresses. Seldom do I venture beyond free verse. I enjoyed the ethereal freedom of your well written piece. Sincerest regards, Brian
