one of those unique 2020 moments of isolation

I saw you on the lake. You have a nice tan, you glistened, wet, and smiled. We waved halfheartedly, at a distance. It was one of those 2020 moments. We are distanced by discipline, desires sheltered in place. Mine are burned, as fuel, for piquant eclogues or rest, unused, like nuclear waste.

One nice thing about the pandemic is now you have the time to think things through and express them with your talent! We enjoy it and hope you do, too! Aloha! Rico

It's a strange time we are living in, this "social distancing." I think we are all missing that human touch. Nicely done, Anais. Hugs, John
