I like this a lot—there’s a calm confidence to it that I really enjoyed.

I love poems that have a strong sense of place, and this one does! I’m going to send it to a teacher friend of mine who is from Jamaica. I know she’ll love it!

You are quite welcome. My friend said it made her feel like she was home!

Deep in my heart, I remember and cherish mornings such as these…the landscape and climate differ, but the clarity of the moment…the gratitude it fills me with, the worship of nature touching my heart, are the same. Thank you, Caro, for your beautiful moment in my day..
