Quiet now, placesharbouring my memories –river dreamcatcher –nostalgia floats on swan’s backpast bridges linking time lapsed. (Tuesdays I borrow from my Twitter account #Vjknutson. Image my own)

Especially loved your verse this week VJ. So here’s my question- which comes first, your images or your poetry? They are always so well matched!
