High Light The Night


I'm in the down phase. The ball on the string of my highs and lows moves down down - but it will move up again soon, as it always does and I will be the happiest woman in the world - until then I take care how I make decisions. I suffer carefully to organize my thoughts and actions.

The world of Cloudcroft at this time of morning is quiet, as usual. No sound but the soft wind in the trees. The world of Cloudcroft is at rest. There is a three-quarter waning moon that lights the night. Only a few stars are obscured by small scattered clouds. The rest are my guiding lights.

Whether in Florida, or Cloudcroft, I take my place in a seat outside what I call home for now, taking in the quiet, the perfect quiet, taking it all in.
