Everybody below seems to be jumping up and down so I think I'm safe to assume the above poetic delight is true-life-heart composed! Congrats. I became a 1st time GM 3-29 (I've never typed or written that before, oh, I must be so much older than I was yesterday.) It's a great feel. 2nd to last line needs an 'a' for perfection??Love it ...
