Time will only tell. Sara

Congrats and high fives Craig! You bring together a picture of a perfect "solstice eve" with all the beauty and grace of a pensive heart that "can't forget." So memorable. Blessings!

This is soooo nice, Craig. It is interesting how the shimmering of the light across water makes the moon appear to be broken up. I gained inspiration for my write for the contest from this poem, even though I had not yet read it. Strange! Good writing. Thanks for sharing.
