Thank you! Guess I never: Thank you! Guess I never really realized I mostly write in ballads. I find it best for me to express my feelings in quick subtle bursts.
Thank you for the comment. I: Thank you for the comment. I have certainly learned a lot about poetry from your poems during the last eighteen months or so. The sense of discovery that your poems brought back to me, when I first began to read them in 2020, was like a restoration of my early excitement about poetry decades ago.

I'm privileged to have any sort of connection to this expansive meditation. Thank you for being open to cosmic truths and allowing yourself to be a vessel of Light. You make a difference.
