Best Of The Net Nomination

My poem “Ice to Water” has been nominated by The Dead Mule for inclusion the 2008 “Best of the Net” anthology from Sundress Publications .

This is a very special poem to me. I wrote it shortly after my son’s death.  The nomination list was posted on Adam’s birthday. The poem is a tribute to him, and one of  the most truthful poems I have written. It was perhaps the most difficult poem to write, but helped me process a little piece of the whole of my grief.

Thanks Dead Mule Editors, and especially Helen.   I am deeply honored.
