This postcard reminded me, with its clean-happiness, of some of the communist propaganda posters of the same era. That's probably not fair, but it is a fascinating image, all the same.<br /><br />I have enough postcards (and a long enough mailing list) to keep going with the project. After the initial 44 poems are done, I will probably shift to sending out just one or two postcard poems a week. That should last me through 2013, at least!Author Amokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636391982938592789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303906221917588052.post-83269375347467332782013-02-12T17:03:47.176-05:002013-02-12T17:03:47.176-05:00In Denver, the landmarks are often taken down, alt...In Denver, the landmarks are often taken down, although one thing is left. We've had such change, like a new airport, so the old one, right here in the city, is now a vast new neighborhood, with one hangar and the control tower left as a museum. I don't get to the mountains as much as I should, although my grown children do. We even have a condo that we share with a friend! Time flees! I love the postcard picture, interesting how everyone does seem so happy, and all the patients are in red. I like your imaginary hankie, or dove, a fleeting image it seems. Will you be sad when this project ends, Laura?Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303906221917588052.post-53177186480369078622013-02-12T10:41:53.678-05:002013-02-12T10:41:53.678-05:00Hi, Tabatha.

Let me know whether you'd like to go together this spring.<br /><br />Fred and I are going to North Carolina with two other local authors for a literary event this weekend. He is a super guy to spend time with and his poetic voice is unique.Author Amokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13636391982938592789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303906221917588052.post-46792909373138560132013-02-11T11:22:07.269-05:002013-02-11T11:22:07.269-05:00I just made a note for myself about visiting Fores...I just made a note for myself about visiting Forest Glen/National Park Seminary. Thanks for the tip. What an interesting postcard and poem! Rich with imagery and ideas. Also, I enjoyed visiting Frederick Foote's site. I'll have to come back.Tabathahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367572663591077922noreply@blogger.com
