I tried to encapsulate these sentiments in 'A Vertical Haiku' Despite the liberty of extra space I feel you've done it far far better. Well done Tony

I do love the ocean so but there is something about mountain air and the pristine peace I find there... Thank you for sharing your lovely thoughts. Esther : ]

Dear Ernestine, this is so strange, just after I responded to Dee Daffodil on her poem 'The Rock', I see your great piece, if you see the comment I wrote on her piece you may agree as to why it was so strange This is wonderful, flying high so true,10! without fail, Love Duncan X
