our most primitive ancestors sat around the fire and spoke stories, poetry, songs, chanting, giving breath to visions, dreams and most important memories which they wished to be remembered & passed on. yes..."poetry is the universal breath..." because you can fit all others (stories, songs, chants, dreams, visions) into it's form. great poem!
what lovely words to read....thanks so much for being a constant..been trying to write in different forms...just like you said...
