This is what I call poetry! How beautifully written, the rhyme, the meter. The words just flow from one concept, thought, description, to another while maintaining perfect pitch nad beat. Bravo. Enjoyed it immensely.

This has a deep, mystical aura all about it. Very well done. I just finished reading a very fine book about C.G. Jung, Jung the Mystic. So this poem goes deep for me. Thank you for writing it Valerie.
