i remember the back of you as a lily strikes the hours every stone walks off and the morning sinks in an avalanche of footprints, petals and parables the sudden whitewashed limbs of you
As I don’t anticipate posting again this week, I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
Love this. A profound sense of parting.
