A Poem for Joe Hutchison

who said so

naturally that sweet shiver of rightness
in response to a poem

I'd written about my wife,
then went on with

that keeps poets writing
and their readers reading--

this one's for him
who read what I wrote,

then put it so

sweet and right,
just like my wife.

  1. What a kind surprise! We seem to have similar wives. Somewhere in our past we must have earned some good luck....

    Cheers!
