going in and out of the mouth of holes in the clay.- acts of paradise as a child. wonderful poem, a spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings surrounded by heavenly beauty of nature,

I love this poem. I like the reminiscence in it. Reminds me of trees way back in the past. Thanks for writing it.

Is It Poetry.........good question. i guess it can qualify. i'd guess (if you really do have a mental disability...what would it be?) that the parts of your poetry (and 'bio/about you') i find odd are caused by your 'condition'. hmmm? but, then again, you may be simply creative. you have created some interesting (weak word perhaps) poems. let me look at one more today. thanks for sharing. :)
Bri (not the brie I am fond of) this is a brilliant poem by a very healthy poet, his name is James McLain, and please, if you do not understand his poem, never offend the healthy person behind the poem, the poet's name is JAMES McLAIN
