STARING AT EMPTY PAGES
This was in September 1970…
and then, just six short years later, I was already
thinking back to those more innocent times…
and now today it is all so much more distant,
so very far away and yet still so very near…

MORNING MISTS
“A feeling of sadness and longing,
that is not akin to pain,
and resembles sorrow only
as the mist resembles the rain.”
