No one is sleeping in this world.

Snow heavy on pine needles
No one is sleeping in this world.

We have come a long way
Snow heavy on pine needles
No one is sleeping in this world.

The iron kettle sings
We have come a long way
Snow heavy on pine needles
No one is sleeping in this world.
.
I know there is someone
The iron kettle sings
We have come a long way
Snow heavy on pine needles
No one is sleeping in this world.

The underground union between us
I know there is someone
The iron kettle sings
We have come a long way
Snow heavy on pine needles
No one is sleeping in this world.
.
I remember now
The underground union between us
I know there is someone
The iron kettle sings
We have come a long way
Snow heavy on pine needles
No one is sleeping in this world.

The Devil's Triangle
The sails ruffled in the breeze as we cruised along. The Sea Breeze was a mid-size catamaran that sailed out of Royal Naval Dockyard in Bermuda. We had booked this trip weeks in advance and were now looking at our Captain, Spike and two boat hands. Paddy and Wilson seemed like nice guys, joking around with the passengers and telling us some stories about Bermuda that only locals would know. Their island accents sounded almost British but they were pleasant to listen to.

very nicely done.
That format worked so well for your poem. I loved how each line kept building on the next so effortlessly. Wonderful work :)
Love the format and the buildup to the end. Beautiful! Hearted and subscribed
Gorgeous poem; love the repetition of “the iron kettle sings.”
Beautiful words
