CELEBRATING A MENTOR

With penchant for the written rhyme,
He’s now in his poetic prime.
The years have only added days
To wheedle words, or turn a phrase;
To woo a reader, pierce a vein --

And it is here that he’ll remain.

Marie Elena

Happy birthday to the best mentor a girl could ever ask for. Here’s to future decades of sweet-talking your muse into dancing ‘til the sun comes up.

  1. You know Darlin', as long as I have a friend like you, the sun never goes down in the first place. And making my muse dance is more than sweet talk, it's survival. And don't think you're the only one learning something from this association. Thanks for all you do, and for the lovely tribute.
    Glad to have you in my life!
