Excellent

Great image and perfect fit for the words.
I guess folks better pack a picnic lunch this drive might take a while.
I hope I've interpreted the poem correctly.
Blessings

Thanks, Shirley. I hear Nirvanaville is a neat place.

Excellent

I am not sure I really understand this poem, I would rather relate it the complexity of our network of roads, getting more confusing the more you attempt to describe it to a stranger. Well done, Bill.

This is very funny thank to the picture you have illustrating it. I've been on such confusing roundabouts. There was one in New Orleans I thought I'd never find my way off of. Where is Nirvanaville? Is that near Buddaville or it that the place where rock bands perform?

Nirvana I?ll is an easy-off/easy-on exit off Highway to Heaven.

Can I just take the bus and sleep on the way? Something tells me I am going to need all my strength when I get there. You see I have to see a horse about a man, who looked down the horse's mouth and then he bought a pig in a poke, and ran away with a dish and a spoon.

Wouldn't that be something. Certainly, this chaotic world needs a peaceful destination where people could experience bliss again. Nice rhyme with take and interstate.

Yes, your artwork looks nervy. LOL. Your short and succinct 5-7-5 plays off the art and gives us a smile. Very creative, Bill, very creative. :).

Normally, I would say this is the kind of driving directions that I could understand but now I realize this is an ekphrastic poem and the directions require being maybe higher than on the interstate.

I am assuming this place is imaginary Bill? A place we would all love to visit though, I enjoyed the fantasy and your inventiveness here. A fun post, love Dolly x

I've looked for this darn off ramp so many times and still haven't found the blessed thing...lol. I got close in Missouri or Kentucky or some such state once, or so I thought, as I drove through the small nearly deserted town and passed by Floyd's Barber Shop...but didn't look too inviting, so I carried on! I think it was a good choice. Nice job!
