Simmering Smokes: Puente


Simmering smokes
rise to the sky
follow their own paths

~ let god be the connecting link~

joining their souls
across the universe
in holy bond






Puente:
First and third stanzas have equal number of lines 
Middle bridge stanza is one line
Middle bridge stanza serves as last line for first stanza and first line for last stanza

This is beautiful. I love the imagery in the poem, and the photo accompanying it. My favourite thing, how clouds play against the mountains. Lovely to read you, Vandana.
