Might I use your poem - with full credit given - in a prompt I am working on? (for earthweal.com, where we contemplate the climate crisis and our response to it). It is about finding the moments of "collateral beauty" in life. This poem is the PERFECT illustration of it. I will come back to see - or email me at wildwomantwo@gmail.com Great stuff, Ollie!
