I was added to the mailing list sometime in 2000, and thoroughly enjoyed reading his monthly selections. In January of 2004, I was inspired to follow Gene's lead and begin this Poem of the Month email so that I could also share my love of poetry with my own friends, family and colleagues - poetic ripples extending outward, so to speak. After seven years, Gene has decided to retire his poem of the month. I am thankful for Gene's inspiration and friendship, and dedicate this month's Poem of the Month to him. Thank you, Gene, for sharing with all of us your passion for words and your passion for life. I do not think I would ever trade those memories...
