You and Dear Heart both came up with an impressive monoku so quickly! So far, I've got nothing but I'm sure somethings percolating with my muse. Yours is very good and I definitely relate to the sentiment. Good luck in the contest and all else. May 2019 be an embraceable, joyous year for you! Poetry hugs ... CayCay
