Radha - what a delightful way to re-enter the Poet to Poet substack, with such a generous and thoughtful post. I'm working on one of those uncommon project books - but still, the work is leading and is full of surprises and delights. And, of course, a few of those interesting but (as yet) unsuccessful works-in-progress. Thank you for your work and your commitment to this community.
Wonderful to read your thoughts, insights, meanderings again, Radha! Thrilled to be able to relate to much of your observations and ideas moving forward.
very clear insights and very helpful, I liked the cross pollinating poems concept. My mom was an artist and sometimes she would do a painting or a sculpture and she would say, "I just need to do this so I can get to my next one." or she would say something like, "this is just a sketch, but I'll need it for something ahead."
So good to have your insights again, Radha! As you know, you speak to what I have been struggling with. It is so good to be accompanied through this endeavor by your good thoughts.

I like this rumination. I’m right there with you. I can’t wait to read part two.
