HOME Thursday, March 30, 2006 An Appearance in the Bonsai Project The publisher of MiPoesias, Didi Menendez has selected my poem "The Prelude to War" as the first bonsai award of 2006. This recognition came as a total surprise, and is an honor. I’m thrilled. And I’m already the new owner of a bonsai tree, as it was on my door step when I drove in from work. You can read my poem here. An audio version of the poem will be available next week. 10:12:55 PM   | COMMENT [] | Blog banner taken from the oil painting "The Departure" (40"x 30") by Michael Parker, 1999.
