Hi Stewart
 
 
 
As always, I appreciate your kind comments and feedback- it means so much!..regards Mike

Hello Cordelia
It is my attempt as a pause, or stop a thought, then to carry on.  I do use commas and periods in sentences and paragraghs when I write letters but for me when I write poetry, this is how I think it and write- I know it is unorthox, and for alot of people it is oft-putting, and I am sorry that it is difficult read- that is not my intent.  I will do my best in the future to keep your comments in mind when I post again.  Regards Mike

You have to use your imagination a little because the photo does NOT do the vista justice... when I went for a walk this morning, the clouds looked like mountains to me. Since I live in one of the flattest states, it\'s the best I can do!

I titled the photo \"When clouds are mountains\" and then a poem hit me.

I used PicMonkey to manipulate the image a little and to add text.

This is fantastic! I agree with Kate, it is different from your earlier work. Plus, I love the vocabulary throughout. Very deep and philosophical. Kudos for using equanimity, especially!!

Always a pleasure, Stewie  Question - in the 3rd stanza, is the \"I die I free\" intentional?

I\'m very distracted by all the dashes. Will you tell me what you intend them for? Are they supposed to be like line breaks?
