I like that you can read these forwards and backwards. Excellent choice of words.

thanks for the comment, Debra; it reminded me to look up PS's definition of the form and to change my verbs to gerunds. I took a class on another poetry site and they were rather non-traditional in their approach. I included a bit of rhyming which makes it seem more like a poem (IMHO).
