Suzanne Delaney Poet Prose

Notes About The Poem

Tribute To Connie

Connie was an inspiration to me for many years.
- her encouragement - her enthusiasm 
- her genuine love  of poetry - her finding
something to like in every poem she read of mine, 
carried me on a journey of learning that transcended 
the ordinary act of writing. She inspired and believed in me 
and we developed a true and lasting friendship.
