Exquisite language; rolling waves of confluences and syntheses; punch-me-in-the-gut truth, expressed with fervor and beauty; plus courage: a gift to your readers.
This is my favorite poem; I will treasure it even more, for what you have shared. Nan
So sorry to hear of your trees! I’m in France right now, surrounded by greenery so much denser and wetter than at home in Los Angeles. I imagine these trees split and gutted, and it’s a devastating thought.
Wicked Tomi, thank you so much for your loyal readership and support. Love your comments. Hope you are enjoying your travels. Ian was supposed to leave today for London, Copenhagen, and Budapest with his Purdue pals, but his flight was canceled!!! Can't go until Monday. Crazy, crazy times. So sad for him.💜
Wow - tears in my eyes - the poem is so beautiful as are your words. Thank you 🙏
