   I like your inclusion of words from my profession, interesting and very Lewis Carroll like to me words tumbling.

   Is this the building that was started by Gaudi way back when? Did you feel any energy coming out of or inside of it? Gaudi was inspired by otherworldly sources, I believe.

         Spain is on my bucket list. I need to visit Gaudi’s work at least once.

   That church is very unusual. I didn’t know that was the reason for the porphyry but it makes sense.

   Sometimes overdoing it a bit is just the ticket! I love how the words follow like playing piano scales, flowing into a kind of philosophical musing.

   You cannot be serious, sir. A poem which overdoes? 😊 Ai mean, one has heard of poems giving, and poems making. Overdoing is perhaps a bit awkward?
