Thanks for stopping by! If you’re new here and want to keep up on poetry and 32 Poems, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. If you don’t see me tomorrow, it’ll be because the VOCs or whatnot in the paint in my kitchen have asphyxiated me. It is so stinky in here […]

The past eight weeks have been so…full.
Today, I took soup and salad to a friend who just had a baby. I held the newborn for about an hour. We all sat on the shady back porch and enjoyed how the light turned golden as it came through the translucent porch roof. The hour with this […]
