   I have recently felt the urge to do more writing, and have been especially pulled toward poetry, and with some satisfaction. I've been casting about for the right sort of poetry to read, to improve my skills, and with LITTLE satisfaction. But the other day as I was going through an old box of books, I came upon a book called A Poem A Day, edited by Karen McCosker and Nicholas Albery. A poem for each day of the year. So I'm starting pretty close to the end. 
   I noticed on the first page, that it had belonged to  a lady I had very much admired as a girl, the aunt of my best friend. When the good lady passed away, my friend sent me several boxes of her books, because she knew I shared many interests with her aunt. Having stumbled across this book just when I needed it fills me with gratitude. Thank you again, Dina Khouri, and I bless the memory of Aunty Ruth Hembekides.
