“To the Lovely Green Beetles Who Carried My Notes into the Afternoon” first appeared in riverSedge Volume 29, Issue 1, released in October 2016. It is also included in my chapbook, From Every Moment a Second, available for pre-publication order through tomorrow, August 11, from Finishing Line Press.
O at the Edges 
One of my favourites! Love its whimsy! I could say now, thanks – to the sonorous voice that carried me deeper into the afternoon…

Great understated title, Bob. Hope to have my copy in hand soon, too, and I’m planning out from there. When, in general, are you available these days (LMK via e-mail if you want)? How about a block of 1- to 2-hours . . . I’m hatching a plan that may or may not be something novel and unusual. Later, poem-maker!
