Additional Poet Information: I once wrote a poem for the United Way Campaign at work. I wrote it only for those in my office to encourage donations after a long strike. It went over so well that, before I knew, it travelled to Ottawa and ended up being translated to a French Version and both versions were framed and put on the wall in the Boardroom for the Deputy Ministers of the Federal Government. That was my proudest moment because I had no idea it would go so far.
