On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.

You packed so much into just a handful of syllables, well done 😁
This poem captures so much beauty and a feeling of peace in so few words. Great work!
Oooo, this was stunningly beautiful! Loved these lines!
Beautiful visual. Nature stills our energy to renew it.
Sometimes seeing nature at work and in movement is a language all of its own...I think it communicates soul to soul with us in stillness like you said in your poem so eloquently.
Lovely! I agree with Christy, works well alone and as a continuation of the renga
