I love the connection that weaves its way throughout the poem, from the beginning of the poem throughout the poem, to the triumphant, beautifully written Gypsy, blessings Roy

Well done
Comment from Jasmine Girl
This poem starts with serious poetic lines describing the beauty of the mountain range. Then the last line made me laugh. The Satori is a pleasant surprise.
Well done.

Comment from Pearl Edwards
Clever combination of the round mounds description of the hillside but also the double meaning when you add in your final line, 'w t-shirt contests. A lovely presentation in words, text colour and artwork Gypsy.
cheers,

Comment from Douglas Goff
How absolutely fascinating. I thought this was going to be another one of those dull drool scenery pieces that litter the field of the poetic dead, but you whamblasted us with that last line.
Very nicely done This is subtly refreshing. I appreciate your work!

Comment from lyenochka
Lol! Oh! I guess the viewer saw those "round mounds" and thought of "wet t-shirt" contests instead. I liked your use of font color gradations and the use of assonance in "sprinkled drizzle, thinking" and "evergreen trees, t-shirts).

Comment from Sandra Nelms-Ludwig
Haha... Ms. Gypsy. I was not expecting the last line to this poem. The text is a great size. The message is clearly about nature in the first four lines. Then you flip the script and write about human nature. It left me wondering about why you composed it that way, but I can see the connection with the mounds.
