Nicole,
I love hearing you read. I am struck by how complex the thoughts are that lead to the comparative (deceptive) simplicity of the beauty produced by the poem.

Steven — Thanks for spending some time with Samuels’ artwork, my words, and to share your own thoughts on this pairing. I had fun creating the poem and am glad its creation story added revealing layers to it. I appreciate your comments!
