Come soon,
she pleads, beneath
the moon
as night
makes way for day.
To light,
her moan
succumbs; I wake
alone.

That’s good to hear. π Equally amazing for myself as well. I finished “To Kill A Mockingbird.” I haven’t reread that in a while. Snow is falling and it’s pretty, so lots to be happy about. π
