The Kindling Fire Comments

i give you honor my brother in life, for you was born the same day as my wife we may not be rich and famous or even world reknown, but our words will never let us down, they will be here long after we are gone, and hopefully passed down thru the generations of our grand and great grand children. this is our legacy that we leave to them, and that is all we could do my very dear friend. again i honor you and your poetry. and may the words come as freely as the birds up in the sky, for that's all we have you and i.

To transfer genuinely felt sentiments accurately in words of clear meaning is no mean feat. Saint Eule has done it here and the poem's feeling becomes the reader's feeling. If it was written on his birthday here is wishing him many happy returns of the day and my prayers for his family specially for his children and grand children. I know what it is being a grandfather myself.
