Farewell Jim,
You have always been honest in your assessment and critique; trying to improve and help polish other's work. I thank you and will miss you, although I never knew you except through your posts. I'm glad you enjoyed my last sonnet and left such a wonderfully supportive note confirming both my intent and subject matter. Your presence will be missed here in this place and may the afterlife treat you as gently as you have treated others in this one. Larry ······· ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
