Tom, first welcome back from your trip. I know you must love to travel and it's obvious many people (myself included) miss you when you are away. The poem here is beautifully structured. I like the way the edges curve ever so slightly--like concave mirrors to amplify the beauty you describe. We are very glad spring is arriving and your photo and words are lovely.

Tom Cunningham
Date: 2/21/2024 8:43:00 AM

Thank you very much for the welcome back Duke. Had a great time away but it's always nice to be home. Hope you're keeping well. Glad you enjoyed it. Tom
