FATHER'S DAY

      As I've said elsewhere in these pages, my father is the one with whom I credit my character... who I really am...and what I actually make of the mental capacity my mother and mentor helped me develop. There is no nicer or better-received a compliment you can pay me than to tell me I remind you of my dad or that I'm like him in some way. Once you've read some of my Father's Day poems to him, you will realize I've said all I need to about that! We start with 1994, the first I had available in a dead-tree edition...most of my past work is still trapped in my old "Amiga", but I'm arranging an electronic "ransom" as we speak!!!
