I appreciate words of praise about any poem of mine these days more from persons who know nothing much about poetry than those who think they know a lot. There’s a time, it’s been said.

PS Sometimes it’s a time to listen to other poets answer questions from another poet to hear some wiser words than mine. Oh, and mine as well.
