Western Wind

I don't understand why, but if you are seeing this by your phone, "strings" refuses to stay in center

Hey, look at you just a'stylin what not long ago was a frustration and challenge. I have a hard time because Soup double spaces all lines. This is wonderfully done and I see congrats are in order! You made beauty, a haiku that artistically blended with words without sending me on a word sequence hunt. I think you've graduated.
