Florence Poets Society

The Florence Poets Society gave me another reason to give thanks this Thanksgiving Holiday. On Friday when I plucked open my mailbox a thick envelope lay there with their Massachusetts return address on the envelope. A question mark appeared in my mind as I walked to the house.

After tearing the envelope open, I read the brief note sticking out from a soft-covered book from co-director Carl Russo suggesting I see page 44. Wow! They published my “words & paper &” poem in the Silkworm 2006 annual review of the Florence Poets Society under the Poets of Distinction section. A complete but delightful surprise.
