I thank him for his words, thoughts, and permission to publish them in this collection of dialog poems, of my response, "Yes, Alexander?" to his thoughtful questions or comments over time. And to his mother, my wife over these many wonderful years. Thanks also to Deborah Benner for her editorial guidance and publishing several of these poems in Goose River Anthologies.
