Love the twist in this. Sometimes returning to childhood feels like going outside, going outside the constructs of adult society into the fresh air of wonder blah blah blah... but sometimes it DOES feel very much like going inside as well, to safety, to the adventure you create in your own livingroom.
Wow! I feel so privileged to have this little glimpse into your mothers memories and your relatioship with them (and her). Beautifully written and cleverly formatted. Thank you for sharing!
I do both as well! My daydreams tend to be very verbal, though the words often have a setting and characters (though lots of the time the main character is me)
Ahh, a covered bridge, iconic Vermont! I love your use of muted colors, when the reds, oranges, yellows of fall are usually depicted so vibrantly -- it makes your piece so unique!
Gardening is such a lovely analogy for writing! In a very meta way, it's clear you tended to each line of this poem with great care as you nurtured it into existence. Such vibrant language throughout!
My day dreams are basically like movies...I can see things happening in my head but sometimes also hear characters' voices. It's actually pretty cool just not when it happens in the middle of class......
It’s at the top of camels hump, and that’s my mom- beautiful, isn’t it? :)

Breathtaking, woah! Was this reached at the end of a hike? There's a real sense of triumph that exudes from this photo.

Thank you so much! You summarized what I was trying to get at perfectly, and yeah, it’s really something to think about :)
Amazon doesn't give you much money, though it is a very easy way to publish. You don't even need to get it printed, all that will be done for you.
