I am tickled right down to my toes to receive this beautiful poem from Paul Matthews<\/a>, my dear Foundation Studies colleague at Emerson College in Sussex England. Paul led me artfully to explore the full potential of science and art working side by side, of pursuing silly-seriousness, serious insights pursued imaginatively and at times peripherally.

BREAD FELLOW
\n(for Warren Lee Cohen)<\/h3>\n

Wisdom is a word you like.
\nI never relished it,<\/p>\n

but have admired how
\n(loping across the yard)
\nyou knead the good earth
\nwith knees and feet.<\/p>\n

It is in this wise
\nthat I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve savoured you.<\/p>\n

Even your homespun hat
\nseems a bowl preparing
\na thoughtful yeast to rise.<\/p>\n

Your sourdoughs and your ryes.
\nYou\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve tasted good.<\/p>\n

Dear Warren, <\/em>
\n Here is the poem I was trying to write for you upon your <\/em>
\nfarewell from Emerson all those years ago.<\/em>
\nWhether it still applies to the person that you now are, I am not sure, <\/em>
\nbut as a poem I like it (unless the lines beginning:<\/em>
\nIt is in this wise… should come after: a thoughtful yeast to rise). <\/em>
\nAnyway, here it is.<\/em><\/p>\n

Love to all, <\/em>
\n Paul.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n
