I'm finally warmin up to this BLOG BUSINESS!!

They need to make a button on the keyboard that somehow reverses the size of your letters (proof I look at the keypad and not the screen when I type) when erroneously typing in high caps...instead of deleting the entire first sentence and re-writing it in small caps...like I just did, just now, though I haven't re-written anything yet, I'm simply explaining what has just occured, and it's taken me a gigantuan paragraph to do so... Maybe this is why I've been so tentative in tackling the great blog...mine turns out at aa a blogvel (blog-novel). Anyway, this should've been my opening sentence: I would like to use my first blog entry to thank all of you who have commented on my poems over the last few years I've been on this amazing outlet of a site, specifically for your warm-hearted responses, generous praise and the remarkable expression of connections made, through the channel of poetry, y'alls and mine...s... Reading your profiles, and photos; it's awe-inspiring, the depth and experience and worldly wisdom coming from all corners of the soup bowl (yes, THIS bowl has corners)...the enormity of life experience saturated into the lines here make me feel like a small doe in the woods...learning how to step appropriately through the branchy vines of the forest floor. God Bless you all!!! -matt
