Clutching at Straws 
perfection.
profound
this is pure poetry.sheer joy.to convey not so much a message but an athmosphere to space,to the reader.
you feel priviledged to have read it.it really adds joy
and profundity.
…you are Rumi and Neruda in one beautiful bite yet, your recipe with words is deliciously and soulfully LaBounty.
Great poem and great website title.
