Found my way here from Francisco's feature.

I enjoyed the poem and many lines resonated with me, as from my highlights you can see.

The lines that I highlighted as the springboard to this comment, reminded me of a couple of recent poems of mine that you might enjoy. The first one I wrote a few days ago after observing storm clouds roll in and then give way to puffy white incubators for all sorts of shapes, especially dogs, and blue skies. I included pictures I snapped and a link to the whole series. https://medium.com/@marcus17043/cloudwatchers-delights-360d9239c9e3

This next one https://medium.com/@marcus17043/tanka-of-june-wind-43c141c07d80 includes the line:

"Birds of prey and butterflies

Currents provide lift to all"

This one, a terza rima sonnet I wrote over a year ago, https://medium.com/write-under-the-moon/why-do-i-write-544e6f1a32a3 connects with your theme of why I write and provides some corresponding answers, such as in this stanza:

"Write to express and temper my rages

Else my anger can turn to resentment

Progress not perfection comes in stages"
