When summoned by the king, the jester should always smile, elsewise the joke may be on him. The king, it seems, is pleased.
So am I.
yes! i just came from reading it, and wanted to congratulate you.
yikes, paul - a wonderful review!
Wow! I just read the review, which caught me too, by surprise. Happy Sunday to kick off a year of similar amazements. As you might recall, (I hope you do) I predicted all of this of your poems. Thanks for the nod in your new book, by the way. I was surprised by that, too. Wishing you more of all these riches.
