Ann - this is a wonderful tribute to BSH, and Lance ......
Wow Ann, that is genius, well done!
Thank you Liz and Patti, you've both commented, as it says in the poem! Lance is being modest about his contribution, which was a lot, although I did the 1st draft and used the song titles. I thought it was a good time to write this poem just when we're nominated for an award. Ann
