as always, I'm glad the choosing is not mine to do ... my warmest congrats to you, john ... well deserved ... this was a wonderful poem that I enjoyed ...!
"Each smallest act of kindness reverberates across great spans of time, affecting lives unkown to the one whose generous spirit was the source of this good echo, because kindness is passed on and grows each time it's passed, until a simple courtesy becomes an act of selfless courage years later and far away. Likewise ... each small meanness, each expression of hatred ... each act of evil." "The Momentuous Day" H.R. White
