“Thanks for an excellent workshop. Not only was the information extremely valuable, but the spirit that was in the room was uplifting and heartwarming. If the whole world could operate as well, war and hunger would be obsolete. "Molti grazie!" as my Sicilian father would have said!”

“Likeness of Being” is food for the soul. From the sultry imagery of “A Moment of Self” to humanity personified in “Walls” it is a ride through life with thoughtful perspective. Turning each page was like opening a present on Christmas morning.”
Jeff Jones, Owner of the JAVA 149 Coffee Shop, 149 Main St. Suffolk, Virginia

“The pantheon of great American poets has just been enlarged. Richardson’s visions of what the world could be; of our common humanity and our joyful diversity, create intense emotions of laughter, tears and a deep spirituality”

“Likeness of Being” succeeds where other books of poetry fall short. Likeness touches the human core that lies beneath the barriers of race and religions.”

“When I got home I was excited to tell my wife Connie about meeting you and the way in which you present your wonderful poems. As the young of today say, “Awesome!” I called my folks in Atlanta, and they were excited about the good news of another divine appointment. “
Ann Perry, Poet., Chesapeake, Va
“It was my deep pleasure to meet you! I came home raving to my husband about meeting the most talented poet! Not only is your poetry exceptional, but your voice and delivery are as well. The wedding poem was fantastic! I thought - he can never top that; then you did the one called “You’ve Got Work to Do” which equaled or maybe even topped that. And all from MEMORY! WOW!
