My Response to Steve

 Steve is a friend.  He's a valuable member of the Franklin Senior Scribblers.  He's valuable because of his technical expertise.  He records our sessions once a month on Franklin's radio station and podcast.

Steve, besides being a "man about town," is a poet extraordinaire.  He created his own poetry genre, sherku.  Sherku's inspiration is haiku, but he adds two more syllables to the traditional haiku. 

Steve has numerous blogs--he loves to write.  On his sherku blog he welcomes responses and comments.  Thus, I respond to his sherku:
