darkness
Short days
Dark nights
If only it meant
I was getting more rest
Perhaps it is time
to see darkness as romance
Candlelight dinners
Reading by iPad light
Or find light
illumination
wherever you can
And with a sigh
call it good

Time to Reboot
I’m wondering what December is about, if it has to be about something, which I think it does, as I’m feeling groggy-headed and unbalanced. Like someone stumbling out of a cave into too bright sunlight.
