Janice & Jean,

Many thanks.

Janice, it's great to know that you actually remembered that spring peeper poem. Originally it was a sonnet, but I threw out the couplet and added a quatrain, which was what the poem wanted. (I try to listen to what a poem wants.)

Jean, don't forget to save me some of that champagne!

Just adding a small congratulations from me, too.
I hope to see all of these poems when they appear!

Thanks, Gail & Bob. You can see a couple of them already, in The Centrifugal Eye and 14 by 14. The others will appear in spring and summer. I'm not sure when Poe Little Thing will be out, but I'll let you know when I get my copy.
