A fitting poem for Christmas. Put a smile to see it here.
Just finished my observance: kicked everyone out to go buy challah, and played Gillian Walsh's "Orphan Girl" and "By the Mark" on repeat about ten times, now will read the turtles again and be ready for the onslaught...t-minus 21 minutes...Love to all, Tom

Lynn,

This is an absolutely beautiful and perfect poem.

The craft of angling is catching fish. The art of angling is a
receptiveness to those connections, the art of letting one
thing lead to another until, if only locally and momentarily,
you realize some small completeness.

Very much enjoyed this each time I came to the circle this week, Lynn. It's been a fine showcase poem.

I wish to come true;
to hold hard to a straight line
which diminishes in the distance
to a point
where I might rest

A worthy place to stop.
