Ohh, I love this lovely and intriguing metaphor Paul. Your poem has an enchanting quality to it of being in a 'holding pattern'... An enthralling monoku to linger over. How you think and write is wonderfully fascinating to me my gifted friend. My warmest wishes always and best wishes for a win.. ~Susan P.S. love the title to this write as well - perfect! :)
