Ode To Rod Mckuen Comments

I just heard of McKuen today, and he sounds fascinating. I haven't read any of his poems yet, but since I can't find any on PH, I will have to search elsewhere. Your poem is a lovely tribute to him and after reading your poem, I am really looking forward to reading his poems.

I too love Rod McKuen...discovered him when I was a teenager. I took all his books out from the local library...and some thirty years later, returned to that town, and tried to take his books out again...only to realize I had never returned them! ! ! I confessed to the librarian my oversight, paid a kindly lowered fine and was told I could keep them...I still snuggle up to Stanyan Street on a chilly winter's night and find warmth. Thanks for reminding me of what first drew me into Rod' s mystique. I invite you to read my poetry, as I am new to poemhunter and welcome all new friends with a wish for PEACE
