There’s a chill in the air tonight and there will be mist on the water in the morning. Join me tonight as I answer some hard questions about how viability is a long term in the Erica on the canals?
Journal entry:
21st September, Thursday
“For a short while this evening
The crescent moon and the setting sun
Shared the same length of skyline.
A fiery bronze heart and the ghost of bone.
Then a robin sings as rain drops fall.
Here is tranquillity and peace.
The horned moon
And evensong among the patter
Of elder leaves.”
