Brava, Lynne! This one’s a tour de force! I’m so glad it was finally welcomed home!
My imagination has failed me countless times over the years, but I’ve never been disappointed to learn of yet another way I’ve been wrong…

Dear Lynne,
I was touched by your poem “Foresight.” Your portrayal of the deep connections within a family, especially the dynamic between parents and their inquisitive son, resonated with me on many levels. The vivid imagery and heartfelt reflections on legacy, memory, and the passage of time beautifully capture the essence of what it means to love and be loved. Your words evoke a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for those meaningful conversations that shape our lives. Thank you for sharing such an intimate and moving piece; it truly left a lasting impression on me.

Wow, Michael, I can’t tell you how much your reply moved me! That this poem truly and fully hit home for you is the best feeling and I really appreciate you took the time to detail that! Thank you very much! And on another note, I must say how wonderful it is to read of your outings with your grandsons – that gift of your time and knowledge – truly something that shapes not just their lives but mine as a reader too, for I learn so much about the world around and underfoot.💚
