 <\/p>\n

I keep forgetting to tell you<\/p>\n

I did complete the reading<\/p>\n

of your latest book.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I was so pleased that<\/p>\n

Alexa does include the reading<\/p>\n

of your Acknowledgements and<\/p>\n

other peripheral material.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I find these sections so very interesting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I look forward to<\/p>\n

reading all again when life settles down<\/p>\n

when I can just enjoy reading the book<\/p>\n

and take some notes on it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I know that you must be so proud<\/p>\n

the publication of this book<\/p>\n

brings so much of your life and work<\/p>\n

full circle.<\/p>\n

Backstory:<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n

I started to\u00a0 write “found poems”\u00a0 during my freshman year while working on the BFA degree in painting.<\/p>\n

Definition of\u00a0found poem<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

a poem consisting of words found in a nonpoetic context (such as a product label) and usually broken into lines that convey a poetic rhythm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“Full Circle,” is a found poem I created from an E-mail letter I received from a friend.<\/p>\n

For the past couple of years I am writing a series of found poems from letters and e-mails that I receive.\u00a0 I call this series, “Thinking of You.”\u00a0 Writing these poems is my way of honoring and celebrating everyday jottings for a variety of sources.<\/p>\n
