Nancy Takacs's poem, "Dearest Water,' a Pushcart Prize winning poem, will appear in Pushcart's 2020 anthology. Bravo, Nancy. I told Nancy, one time, that receiving poems from her was like receiving a bouquet of flowers. Her poems found frequent places in Clover. She came to us by way of David Lee, so thank you, Mr. Lee.
Clover, A Literary Rag Rag, AKA Norman Green and me, and the Independent Writers' Studio Press are delighted with Nancy's award. If you have Volume 15, of Clover, A Literary Rag, look on pages 126-127 for Nancy's poem. If you don't have volume 15, why not?
Clover is no longer publishing, but this award leaves a legacy of fine works by wonderful poets and storytellers. Bless you all. AND if you are interested in buying Clover, A Literary Rag we have back issues. Village Books has volume 16. Again, Nancy, congratulations on your Pushcart prize.
Like the title says -- Clover, A Literary Rag, Vol. 16 is waiting for you at Village Books!

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your support of the Rag from the 'Ham. It is your great work and words that have put us into such a lofty state of affairs.

In Gratitude,
Mary
