Let me be the first to congratulate you two on another great tale. It is a shame we don't have a "kudos, I bow down before your greatness" emoticon.

Wonderful work.

Any plans for Hanukkah and/or Christmas? I hope, I hope.

We need a begging emoticon, too.

Many thanks, although I must confess that we enjoy writing them as much as you do reading them.

I'm game for Christmas and Hanukkah. I'm a goy, but I have a keen interest in all things Judeo-Christian and a daughter-in-law in the Judeo camp. Maybe she can help me with words that rhyme with schlemazel.

Was answering posts on other threads and remembered
I had not checked in on the conclusion of your
"objet d'art". Congratulations, a truly remarkable
and beautiful poem. I love the tone it took towards
the end, without blaming the past, but acknowledging
it and taking responsibility, yet deciding history's role
and moving onwards with a celebratory tone.
Beautiful: Congratulations to you both.

Thank you. I hope to start another poem soon.

The Native American situation is very serious with me as
I had an Indian grandmother, and am very much into
their spirituality, so I appreciated the tone of the poem
for the direction it took, and the recognition of the Indian
participation in the Thanksgiving history. They were so
very much involved in the Pilgrim survival when half
died at Plymouth the first winter.
