oh this is so cool. Michael below calls this whimsical. I see whimsical in other poems of yours and that is a great thing to see in poetry!

Drilling is such an appropriate word for getting through those feelings you describe and then the sweet relief of love upon the real & clever bed rock picture. Inspiring. Thank you.
