Don't tell me the moon is shining;
show me the glint of light
on broken glass.
Anton Chekhov

Critique of my poem, No Salvage, by Tracy Koretsky of www.winningwriters.com

I have to pinch myself on this one - I love this critique.

Baby Steps

My friend, Linda, is pulling me kicking and screaming into the twenty-first century.  Bless her for her expertise and gentle persistence.  Till now, I have been pretty computer illiterate.  To give you an example, I maintained the books for our business and personal finances on a 286 IBM using Quicken Home and Office until November 2007 when we sold the business.

I am crawling into a U-shaped learning curve that sometimes leaves me stuck at the bottom. But, today I'm  attempting to scale the opposite side - I envision sitting on the rim - pondering the possibilities.
