The Amazing poems you have written have helped your friends during some hard times and very happy events in their lives. With your research of their lives it brings a combination of feelings. Sad, wishful, happiness and loss. You leave a little of yourself with each poem you write.

I know that your pursuit in woodworking will bring a lot of joy and feeling into anything you build! Good luck and keep building on to your future dreams.

Thanks, Mom. You're right. I do leave a little of myself in each poem I write, even when it's about another person's life. It's an honor to be able to write them.

This is thoughtful and lovely. It meant a great deal and gave me the opportunity to honor and remember those I love that have gone before me. You are a good friend to people as you use your beautiful poetry to help them honor and walk their path of saying farewell. Charlotte

Thank you, Charlotte. And thanks for asking me to write a remembrance poem about your mom. That was my second one after the poem for Nan about her brother. Saying farewell is such unique process for each person and it's an honor to be with people as they walk their path. Love you, dear friend.
