I was walking on a trail in the hills of Corfu last summer. A herd of black sheep crossed the road in front of us. We made eye contact. We paused. We all moved on and although I’ve never had poetry arise from within me before, I immediately thought, I need to write a haiku. Thank you for sharing your experience poetry arising.

Oh my goodness Avis, this is such a beautiful instance of live poetry. I love all of the poetry that lives within your being! I went to the Long Island Aquarium with my dear friend Carrie and had an exquisite moment of extended eye contact with a Giant Pacific Octopus... it remains one of the most spiritual experiences of my life.

Lovely. I hope your apparent aptitude and appreciation for contradiction and complement will serve as fuel for your future poetic endeavors.
