This is generous of you, Tabby Ivy. Thank you so much. I am always, always touched when you respond to my work.

I agree with Tabby. It's always a pleasure to read your writing Damon. In a world so often filled with uncertainty, this is no small thing, beauty brought forth by language, your voice, as we call it. It's a unique blend of melancholy and wonder. Thank you.

Thank you, Oscar. Really kind of you to notice my work as you do. And I like that, "melancholy and wonder." It is curious how often they share the same ground in the world.

So wise, beautiful & evocative. Will have to give the notion of Spring being melancholy some thought!

Thank you, Ellen. Yes, curiously, there are several spring songs I could have listed which specifically consider melancholy. An odd piece of who we seem to be in the spring, at least partly.
