Poems for friends and relatives

Today I’m reading a few poems that I wrote for particular friends or relatives—not love poems, just a message of delight or affection. Have you ever written a poem like that—and given it to them? That’s pretty special for both the poet and the receiver.
Love your poems and your podcast.
Thank you so much!

Oh hello Margo! So good to get your lovely message and even better to recognise the mysterious anonymous.
I continue to love hearing you read your own work. As for cleaners, I think of Tillie Olsen’s short story “I Stand Here Ironing.” Not cleaning, but housework.
I must find this story…
