I love poetry about birds :) would you be able to write one about an osprey??

"thinking about how

criticism is noise

flooding my body,

watering down my ability

to revel in reward,

to honor achievement"

This hits so hard, Sara.

Thank you for this beautiful poem.

Thanks, Laura. Helps to feel less alone when others relate to the words and feelings expressed. 🩷

This photo is gorgeous. Also really enjoyed the idea of criticism watering down your ability to revel in reward. This will stay with me.

Thank you, friend! I was originally just going to write a poem about that and then the bird appeared and it became a poem about a bird and so much more. Haha fun to write in real time like that.

This is so gorgeous, Sara! And I definitely recognise that childlike joy of seeing a new bird.
