Here
In the peace and quiet 
Of the night
My mind falls still
And fills with light
As once again
I write.

G'day Elaine! This is sweet, and I know that you were sorely missed. Welcome back into the 'soup', for I believe that it was missing an ingredient.:) Be well, be happy, and God bless you and yours! Mikki
