Bridges, cathedrals, theatre and opera houses, bridges and parks are just some of the topics covered. I am personally very drawn by architecture and in the town I live in, the architecture is quite charming. So charming I will just stop on the street and reflect on something I see above in the buildings. I have often wondered why I get so tickled about curves in roads and geometric unities I see, and I feel that in another time of me I must have studied the design components which still fascinate me in his lifetime.

Poetry is a way I think too, of designing the architecture of the soul. Our responses to life all contribute to the beautiful dynamic that is our embodied soul presence.

Starflower, that BBC series sounds fascinating. I also am strongly attracted to beautiful architecture which is one of the reasons why I love visiting European cities such as Florence, Venice, Vienna, Rome, Paris and London.
Starflower, in other incarnations you probably lived in countries and historical periods in which art and architecture were prominent and highly esteemed, such as France, Italy, Greece and ancient Egypt.
I enjoy your very original idea that poetry is a way of designing the architecture of the soul.
