AUTHOR NOTES

GLASS RAIN—the poetry by Margaret Roxby

“THE RIVER,” was found among the author’s papers and the original did not have a title. The river described is undoubtedly the Ohio River which ran through the author’s home town of Wheeling, West Virginia. It is included this week as companion to the poem by Robert Roxby.
