A new poem “lament for autumn” is up at Duane’s PoeTree (December 2, 2018). I wrote this poem in memory of Jay Zimmerman, a poet & artist friend of mine who died of cancer a few months back. Duane Voehees is an exemplary editor who never ceases to surprise me. This time he not only published my poem, but searched for Jay’s work and published his painting & poem to accompany my work. I can’t thank him enough for appreciating this special poem. After writing this poem I found out that Felino A. Soriano, another amazing poet lost his battle against cancer. I am also remembering him with this poem.
