I plan, I reflect,

I tell myself stories, 

I remember,

I get lost.

I circle back to times past

or travel to tomorrowland,

but sometimes an unexpected stillness comes

and I find myself right here, right now,

awake and at rest. 

                                                                                                                                          JDG

Against all odds, we found it,

 a dress we both adore.

When an eighteen year old

 and one past seventy

finally agree on anything,

 especially on a dress,

  you’ve got something really special.

You’ve got nothing less than a miracle.
