It has received such warmth, and I'm grateful. Needless to say the event affected us all. <BR/><BR/>I wanted to post/mention that the poem will be published in an anthology (Southeast Missouri State University Press) in Fall 2006 called <I>Hurricane Blues: How Katrina and Rita Ravaged a Nation</I>. <BR/><BR/>Come fall, check out their website or check back in on my blog and order a copy. Proceeds will go to survivors.Lee Herrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13989557906560291595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13154063.post-1147320269831860322006-05-10T21:04:00.000-07:002006-05-10T21:04:00.000-07:00Mr. Herrick, this poem just made me say "wow," jaw...Mr. Herrick, this poem just made me say "wow," jaw to the floor and all.

I hope you submit this to a pushcart nominating journal. This poem deserves a shot at it. I'm still reading and rereading it. As I commented to Michael, not just the subject matter..it's the entirety of the poem that's so very very good.Prishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03970753027686923295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13154063.post-1127370751943755102005-09-21T23:32:00.000-07:002005-09-21T23:32:00.000-07:00Very nice work.
