Thanks, Cathy! I really think "exquisite" is the word. The mellifluous vigour he gets into the language always astounds me. Strength and beauty.

I just noticed that if you click on his name under the poem's title, a biography page comes up, and you will see the new 'author photo' I took of him recently. I like it for several reasons: I like that it's a candid shot - he looks in full, passionate speech mode (which he was, talking to the students we took to Greece!); and I like it especially because - I hope you will get a kick from knowing this - it was taken recently in Delphi, in a restaurant just down the road from the Temple of Apollo, and in view of Mt Parnassus and the Gulf of Corinth. How apt, for a poet-photo, don't you reckon?!

Thanks again, Cathy! He's very pleased you like the poem.
