It gives me great hope to encounter poetry like this from our next generation.
While I consider her "young", in my opinion,
this poet's work carries an ancient wisdom.
I find myself sitting back in wonder and awe
at her mastery in dancing with words.
She brings to mind Hafiz, and Rumi, (only in female form).
I confess to more than a little envy,
however, I rejoice in her skill and appreciate her brilliance.
