Dear Bob Ollier,

Tonight I chanced upon your poetry site
For poetry I love, to read and to write
I knew all the poems of poets long dead
I thought I would read Bob Ollier instead
The Last Grain of Sand was first that I clicked
As I read your words, my throat did constrict
When I got to the end, my face was wet
I was there, I was them.. but don't you fret
I rushed here to write you and tell you that
Your power with words just felled me down flat
I thank you for sharing your poem with me
In my heart it's kept, as my tears run free
Amazed how your pen could throw such a light
To touch my heart. Now I bid you goodnight.

Yours sincerely,

Setiawati Lubis
