Sandra Feldman said it best. All I can add is " Congratulations" !
Such a beautiful imagery for colors of heaven. Nothing matches the heaven brought to earth by Autumn's splendor.
You don't see my applause. I see in your poem Virgin letters, spring of poetry in poem about the sublime feeling. You played the words like spilling pearls and and you don't regret it. I bow down for poet's soul. P.S. Read again what Sandra Feldman wrote about your poem and believe: " Sandra is a real judge who never act."
Linda Marie Van Tassell, I love the words that you chose. You are indeed a great writer. I am particularly touched (profoundly) by your life story. I am quoting you: " I appreciate the most important thing of all in life, that one thing which is easily overlooked in today's society - love. I live my life to love and be loved. All else falls to the wayside." , wrote Linda Marie Van Tassell. Merci beaucoup! Hebert Logerie 2/21/2020
