Breathtaking

branches high - lost in hazy clouds reflecting upon calm, still water - early morning dewy new light awakens all in perfect order - tantalized in nature’s raw shroud heightens my senses with honest sight - trails upon this mountain peak await my eager, awed discovery - knitted nature patterns live unique inspired - I am alive here - in this scenery ~~ nothing but the outdoor mystique guiding me onward, guiding me free.

Congratulations on Honorable Mention, CC! Aw, I see this is an older poem, a unique nature acrostic. Ty for reminding us of Connie, below.

Connie was a dear friend. We shared many phone hours. She made her transition while I was absent from Soup and absent to myself as well due to pesky brain issues. I want to read all she posted in my absence, to spend good-bye time w/ her and one day I'll be brave enough to do so. He loves to HM me, he does. Thanks for reading ... CayCay

Hey, Michael - I get to thank you again, my joy! I should visit you, can't remember if I've read you and I want to remedy that. You are on my invisible list of "Want To Do's." Thanks again and all the best ... CayCay

This would be a number one placement if I were judging CayCay. It is perfect in every way and an example to everyone including myself, how to deliver a truly great acrostic! #7v; )
