As you may have already noticed, I took some time to visit with Greg Swann and his way cool lady<\/em>, Cathleen Collins. As you can see in the picture Greg put in his earlier post on this visit, nobody will ever mistake me for Burt Reynolds. And to his credit, Greg described himself as a ‘Fred Flintstone’ type. Turns out Greg is an honest guy.<\/p>\n

I probably had the RCA Dog look on my face most our time together. Seriously, you look at Greg, then at Cathleen, and regardless of his ‘the poet always gets the girl’ mantra, you wonder what happened. \ud83d\ude42 If I were going to attach a movie title it would be Fred Flinstone Meets Cinderella. Of course, to be fair, folks who know my wife and I might say Bride Of Shrek.
\nI enjoyed our time together immensely. They’re brilliant, gracious, and humble. Regardless of the $100 words Greg uses when writing, he’s a regular guy who obviously found his princess. But seriously Cathleen, no poetry is that good.<\/p>\n
