2. I like the way your quadrille starts with being teased by a cloudy mind and ends with being teased by light. The word teased strengthens the impression of anxiety and insecurity, with the light a possible solution, but it could also make things worse. A sensitive exploration of a cloudy mind.

   1. Thanks, Kim. The word teased was supposed to suggest anxiety or tension as you mentioned even with the light.

11. “teased by light, too”….. makes me think of the way light dabbles through trees making wonderful shadows on the ground. “Observe it all” is hard work but rewarding

    1. Thanks, George! It is hard to relax, sit tall and observe if one is anxious and not relaxed. I wasn’t relaxed when I wrote the poem and I tried to describe what that felt like.
