Aw JoeJohn -- whatever impact I make with my writing is only because-- I study from the masters like you....
That poetry is the first I have ever tried - and it felt clunky, awkward - not gonna lie - but then I said, "Nat, give yourself permission to let your feelings be without worrying if it falls in the guidelines of the "book of writing"..." So I let it go...with fear - but let it be.
So thank you - your generous comment -means the world to me. 💟
