A book of poems by Rod McKuen.

I live across the street from the Dana Point Library and every so often, I take a lot of books to the Friends of the Library.  I have too many books.  It’s embarrassing. 

And this morning, I came across a book my grandmother had given me.  It was a book of poems by Rod McKuen, entitled, COME TO ME IN SILENCE.  I forget I had this book.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_McKuen

But I do remember when my grandmother gave it to me.  I was twenty years old.  I was still in college.  I was writing poetry then.  I remember that I won a poetry contest, and received a check for twenty dollars along with a certificate.
