    I am out of nominations, but I genuinely hope this is nominated and takes its rightful place on the front page next week. The use of metaphor throughout is a pleasure to read.

    All the best, Larry

    Larry, there are few words for how profoundly you address the depth these shadows reach, this absence when the person is away, how it affects light and the very atmosphere surrounding us.

    Although this is emotional, this has got to be one of my favorite reads. It's personal yet intimate in how genuine your love is. How lost the universe is without that constant presence.

    This has got to be, hands down- My favorite poem of the year to date.

    In pure elegance, Larry's word usage, visual display and metaphor's dazzle the reader and yet it's so sad that the reader takes and gets the message... that is a gut wrenching emotion one gets while reading. Its beautiful and yet so sad.. Just a true, powerful poem this week by Larry!
