Thank you for visiting this older poem, Ani! It was for a contest and different pictures were offered, I was charmed by this one and the poem wrote itself!

Thanks for your wonderful words, Deepa. It's a poet's quest to be both relateable and unique. Always a challenge to not go too far in either direction. Appreciate your thoughtful comment.

Love what you did with this form and the picture prompt. I too chose this picture . it is SO beautiful. Maybe dreamers are the ones most drawn to this photo!!

I think you're right about dreamers. I remember commenting to you about your Josephine Wall painting, not knowing yet that it was one of Eve's prompts! I really enjoy her painting style.

Good story and I hope he never has to go back to battle because men evolve and are willing to share and not fight!! Like ‘ John Lennon’s Imagine! All the best in the contest John!!
