Holly, You and I have "bumped into each other"......although, not literally. We have got to know each other through our emails.....and yet it's easy to detect the "gifts" that you posess.
As you know.....I just recieved your book a couple of days ago. I have read and enjoyed several of your poems......but wish to reserve opinion of my favorite, until after I have "soaked up" the entire book.
It was Francis Bacon that once said:
"Some books are to be tasted.......others to be swallowed.......and some few to be chewed and digested." Your book clearly is one to be digested.
Holly, your courage, your strength, and your determination is, and should be, an inspiration to everyone. I am happy and proud to call you my friend.
Lee
