going international, making someone cry

A very nice reader told me yesterday that listening to my song "The Taste", based on my poem "the taste of remembrance" made her cry. Sigh. Those of you who know my whole story know that these are the moments worth living. It was a woman's tears upon hearing one of my poems that first opened the heavens to me.

I checked my statistics this morning for my website and noted that the last seven people to visit my site came from 7 different countries (a rarity, as my site is visited predominantly by Americans)...the countries were, in order of "hit", Australia, The United States, South Africa, Mexico, Canada, the United Kingdom and Pakistan.
