BROADSIDE as COMMEMORATION
Each leave taking of these poets/friends/colleagues takes it's toll. And so, in remembrance, a broadside. Feel free to down load each one and keep a copy or just read it on-line.
Karen Eaton
1961-2022
Not a poet, but my little sister. "Pies" was written for all my sisters but the inspiration came from my memory of Karen throwing away mom's cookbook.

Karen Locke
Karen was part of the 1st and 3rd Thursday poets. She was a funny, thoughtful, inclusive woman. I think of her often.
"October Rains" was first published in the anthology Penumbra.
