Hello Alan,

I have now read every poem in the book. I was trying to read only a couple per day to get at the meaning and found them to be very insightful into the relationship of dogs to humans and yes, humans to dogs. As having a dog that I truly adored who died many years ago, there was a certain melancholy happiness to a number of the poems. There were also a number that made me chuckle out loud. You did a great job and it shows your talent. It is a shame that poetry has gone to the wayside for so many people as there is a lot to enjoy and learn. Great job Alan. Keep it up!!

Best regards,
Larry
