Your words are singular, unusual, striking - they leave me stunned. It's been a while since I've read something different than I'm used to... and so I'm glad to have come across your writing because it's refreshing. A breath of fresh air. A delicious breeze I can inhale and relish :)
You better win the weekly with one of your poems! You deserve recognition!

Well written, MaryAnne!
