Having done page layout all my life, I'm usually not too impressed when poets play with the layout of a poem. In this case, however, you have used layout in a way that imparts something related to your message. Our eyes shift to one side of the page where things are troubled, then swing back to the other side, where there is love. This is nicely creative & it does the trick, like a pendulum. I also swing back & forth between trying to give off optimistic vibes & then needing to withdraw to escape all the fomenting (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Thank you Margie - for your comments and for educating me again (I had to look up the word 'fomenting' - a useful word, I think, but one I had never heard before.
