You write as you comment, you live in a peacewant view, this dedication to your grandmother reminds me of all I love who leave before me... I like your circle within circle... that is just soo nice, and then connecting it to the ripples of all ... ... I see your name is a mirror of your views....

"the Bleeding Heart awoke at dawn, blooming red out of season" — a lusciously poetic line! And then this mystical beauty, "Circle within circle within circle, our passing ripples to every atom in the universe". You are such a loving, spiritual force. A heart-felt write. Bravo!!
