I love the way this poem cascades, Sara. As each stanza introduces a prior stanzas thought and carries it on. Reminds me of water rolling over rocks in a slope. Beautifully wrote and wholly agree with the therapeutic nature of poetry.

I agree, Sara: The more often we write the easier it comes. I am on vacation in Florida. Enjoying beach walks and sunsets. Maybe I will write soon but it it is difficult to get into the mindset here yet. Nice Pantoum. I quite like this form. Best, SuZ

Thank you, Suzanne. A vacation would relieve stress as well. I do some of my best work while on vacation at about 4 or 5 A.M. while I can be alone. LOL..Sara
