Yeah, the various iterations of the Imagists are all really interesting. I mean, pretty much the greater portion of free-verse after about 1915 was "imagistic" in nature, rather than "narrativistic". But, the two groups known as "imagists" produced some really great poets.
Aw cheers - that matches with how I see the bird as well. 🖤
The work you do here is incredible! Your poem is so great.
Awwww thank you so much - really appreciate the kind words 🖤 And so glad you enjoyed my offering. Means a lot.

Cheers Zivah - you are very welcome. :-) Awww thank you - I really appreciate it, and am so glad you enjoyed my verse.
"From the Mountains" really moved me in a nice way. I think I like the Imagist movement!
Your poem captured some of this beautifully. My inner experience of the bird is very vivid and unruly.
