Saw this on selected poems. I love how rich and vivid the wordage is while sustaining through the end, every word carefully chosen for this delicate little ornament of a poem. A delightful read, like a tiny delicious appetizer.

Truly an exceptionally conceptional imagery cast by this gem of a short poem. This really got my attention. As we used to go to the hills to pick plums when a kid. """ dreamscapes from pale plum verses of blurred past"" God bless you.

I'll mention here that the free account gives you basic access. For $39 you can get a premium account and upload photos, audio, video, post blogs and increase word count allowance. Also, if you would like I want to introduce you via a blog. It's a slow burn in this small community when you're new. But if you don't I understand too
