Lary, I particularly like the imagery of your poem, which symbolizes the bareness of the spirit of our celebrity-obsessed culture.

I second that! This is a beautiful verse.

Indeed – that’s a great reading Chen-ou. I love the contrast between the guest list and the bare maple in the moonlight. Just lovely.

Lary, this rolls off the tongue like some exquisate delicacy that I could never afford unless I too could manage to gatecrash the Whitehouse dinner.
Delicious !

Chen-ou, I’m happy with your reaction…I could not believe how much attention was given to this incident! (Of course, it’s now been passed over for the latest scandal…)
Laurence and Dick, I do appreciate your comments.
Hi Terry…love your description, lol!
