Many congratulations, Beeme, and I hope you have a wonderful day, despite your course work;)

Your poem is beautiful, and an apt way to celebrate your birthday. It sure does sparkle;-)

I love the poem Beeme - especially the first six lines, and a big happy birthday too. I hope you have a really wonderful day! xx

Hi Beeme,

I thought this was a very clever little poem, very
original, I like the idea of:-

My body;
an archive.
Photographs
attached to bone;
like polarised
memories.
Luminous
with a light
I have never seen.

What a brilliant description.

And a "Very Happy Birthday" to you!

Jenny.
