Tried to post a note to puddle on baby, but blogger won't take my password.
puddle, if you see this, here's a hug for you. It's been a hard year, but isn't it wonderful that Edwin had a May birthday when everything begins to bloom again?

Water gathering
most days I wait
through blue and sun
till dusk
or even later
and the rose has faded
to lavender, to gray
some days, the sleet
has started
and the leaves underfoot
are slick with ice
somehow I'm never sorry
and never learn
one night I waited
till the stars were out
dropped the bucket into
sound, only felt the weight
of it filling
and the night full of stars
and the river full of stars
and the bucket full of stars
come morning, the coffee
is also full of stars

Hi puddle,
Anniversaries are so hard. I hope you get through the day OK.
"For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
"They shall bear the up in their hands, lest thy foot dash against a stone."
Thanks, nordy. I did. And it'll never be the first one again.
