Much thanks, much appreciated.

Hope...<b>Karen</b><br />Much thanks, much appreciated.<br /><br /><b>haricot</b><br />Hope my poem gave you only good memories. Thanks for telling.<br /><br /><b>Brian</b><br />I agree re the kids. Interesting last phrase. Gratifying that you thought so. Thanks.<br /><br /><b>Carl</b><br />I don't think I know about the Leatherman - though it rings a very distant bell somewhere in my memory. Must look him up.<br /><br /><b>Kittie</b><br />Hi! A warm welcome to you and thanks for the observation. Yes, regularity does bring a peace of its own.<br /><br /><b>Williamz</b><br />Not misconstrued. I hadn't particularly seen hima s a figure of hope, but do see where that might arise. The search for meaning in a world that may well be devoid of purpose, though, was certainly in my thoughts. Pleasing to me that you should find a barren sadness.<br /><br /><b>The Weaver of Grass</b><br />Ah, I too wish I lived close enough to be a member, but I shall think of you all and look forward to hearing of the proceedings.<br /><br /><b>Hank</b><br />Very well put. I like it. Thanks.<br /><br /><b>Rachna</b><br />I take that as a great compliment. Thank you for it.<br /><br /><b>Tommaso</b><br />Eeee! I hadn't thought of Wallace Stevens. Thanks for the nudge.<br /><br /><b>Windsmoke</b><br />I wonder now... maybe!<br /><br /><b>Rose</b><br />Thank you so much for all this. A great fillip!<br /><br /><b>Rachel</b><br />Ah, now this is an interesting comment. I think it is the thing I find hardest of all: choosing the title for a piece, whether it be prose or verse, so very many thanks. All comments gratefully received.<br /><br /><b>HyperCRYPTICal</b><br />Thanks for this. Yes, for some unknown reason I flt that to be essential.Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430484174826768488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-64582471151586091522012-01-27T22:26:40.564+00:002012-01-27T22:26:40.564+00:00A beautiful peaceful write - and I am glad that he...A beautiful peaceful write - and I am glad that he is happy as he walks towards his place of comfort.<br /><br />Anna :o]hyperCRYPTICalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11967085628384237933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-41425086910083006672012-01-27T21:41:06.772+00:002012-01-27T21:41:06.772+00:00Having read the title, I felt a strange sort of te...Having read the title, I felt a strange sort of tension as I read this one, waiting to see what would unfold.
