false bottom where will it be next winter this ache of mine

Beyond Enjoyment in the silent garden a weeping willow summer sun         softly filtered rays         piercing silence lazy wind flows across silver chimes notes on breezes         sun drifting lower         from the distance         intruder returning coaxing him closer he glides across my ankle         home again         adventures over—         for now Megs Lewis & Barb Bankson
