he brought me into being,
and nothing has grown
through my life
like my bewilderment at it.

I found you via my alumnae web-site, San Domenico. Reading about a classmate, Sandy Willard Denn, led me to you and I would love to know whether your entries could be automatically sent to my e-mail address.
Thank you for what you have done and are doing.
