    Cynnie! Oh how I've missed your works!! This particular poem captured my attention namely due to it's title. How romantic and anything which includes a country's name seems really attractive to me.

    "Along railroads, I can hear the wind
    plucking songs from cities and skies;
    I can feel its fickleness like a summer
    dress fluttering at my ankles, and I can
    smell pastures tucking into my pockets
    like a sleek carrier of souvenirs."

    I loved your opening. Your description seemingly simple yet one could see that thought had been put into it. I love love it so much, and I could actually see myself looking at the scene you've described.

    "cinematic embrace"
    Loved this phrase, aptly described and paints a wonderful picture in the reader's mind.

    "We'd be locked in a picture-perfect pose
    of sepia; raindrops tripping over
    the canopy, but here we are, steady,
    two shadows beneath street lamps. "

    Loved the ending scene as well :D How gorgeous, if Taylor Swift used your poems in her lyrics, her sales would hit the roof and explode beyond it ;)
