Well said, Darlene. The recent hurricanes have bypass my island from afar. Only once, lasting a short time, did we go dark, somewhat. It was noon with overcast skies and passing rains. The weatherman said that we're halfway through the hurricane season. Such is life, take care of yourself my friend, Aloha!

Hi Darlene, I like this precise write. I wanted you to know that in the title there is an i missing, unless it was deliberate?? My computer seems to play tricks on my spelling these days which has gotten so much worse.

Hello Nancy I will correct the title in a while thank you for telling me. Your computer has played tricks on your spelling! i always keep a dictionary handy-accept for this poem it was out of reach. Oh-well. thank you for letting me know. Higs.

Even in the darkness there is life Darlene, funny I used to love power outages when I was a kid, a whole new world opened up for us to play around in, I must do a poem about it someday just like you did, thank you for that spark, cheers David
