I always doodle if I'm on the phone and waiting in a queue. Sometimes I'm surprised at what I create, like faces and flowers. It's fun and passes the time.

Hi Paul,

some evocative language described in your poem, of a revered land and its people, that is stunningly beautiful and mysterious. I especially loved stanzas three, four and five.

Thank you for sharing.
