For Nette Onclaud's By the Street Lamp Contest/ July 29, 2025

a street light with a building in the background

 

By the street lamp I savor my cherry-cola snow cone while licking deliciousness from a mound of shaved ice as I slowly sip its sweet tang and relish at intervals nibbles from a lemon bar whose icing gladdens my tongue

A deliciously beautiful write, Andrea! I would feel to swoon if I'd ever received such a gallant comment as Howard Kerr's. Not going to happen, I'm a ferocious bear! Still it is so accurate and kind of him. Best wishes, Mikki
