Dear Suzette, This is such a deep and intriguing poem, so thought provoking, and i love the way youv presented your word weaving in such an artistic manner and what youv expressed with such brilliant metaphors in such a creative flow! I especially loved the lines "by naming the planets the stardust the very essence of existence we escape categorisation" that resonates with me, and sometimes it is an escape much needed too. The depth of what youv conveyed here is truly impressive! Pleasure reading you today! Sending you light always
