It's a funny thing, really

So last week when my mother and I were walking around in New York discussing just about everything and she tells me she "googled" her name. When she did she found out Gary Snyder, one of the more famous modern America poets, listed her as one of his top twenty favorite poets of modern America. I mean, he won a Pulitzer. Modesty is one of the qualities I hope I've inherited from my mother.
