My photo
Once upon a time, there lived a little girl. More than anything in the whole wide world, this little girl wanted to be loved. She searched many, many foreign places for love. She kissed many toads for love. She loved and she loved and she loved. The more she loved, the harder it became. Her tiny little heart was fading. Layers and layers of molten skin were binding her.

Also was able to pick more pears off my tree. I woke up around 10:00 p.m., went to my cedar chest, pulled out 2 of my grandmother's quilts, grabbed 2 pillows, and went outside on my deck. The night air was refreshing. Laying under all those stars as if almost being able to touch each and every one of them. As the night calmed down, I could hear far away sounds. What saddened me was the sound of a girl off into the distance crying into the nightsky. The more I focused on the stars above, it appeared as if the sky was sand, being moved about, and connected to the stars. Or perhaps, a better image would be as if the stars were laying in the sand. Betty & Sassy enjoyed the company, as Betty laid on my right side with Sassy drifting beside and behind me. It was 5:00 a.m. when I woke up, with the stars still shining above me. A very peaceful night.
