I should also note that one of the weekend highlights included Lynne and me visiting Dale and Erik for a wonderful meal they painstakingly prepared. Following that, they asked me if I would write something for the day she and Erik tie the knot.
Telling my friend Paul Hapenny this made him laugh, as he gets "commissions" like this all time; but for me, it's a rare treat. The last time it happened was almost ten years ago with a poem to go with my best man toast for Mike and Karen's wedding (actually included in my first chapbook). So, unless you include letters written to the state on behalf of relatives in trouble (and I'd best not), there hasn't been too many requests.
Thanks, again, guys.
