Unknown phone number

New voice on the other end

Possibilities.

Happy exhaustion

Forces my eyes closed, smiling.

It was so much fun.

Warm foggy morning

The world is still, awaiting light

Cozy in the haze.

Red, green lights twinkle

Boats lit up with Christmas lights

Parading at dusk

Facetime with loved ones
Connection across the miles
Now I need a hug.

Gray clouds herald rain

Strong breeze carries it aloft

Parched lawns are grateful.

Anesthetized dusk

Colors, emotions faded

Numbness stops pain

My heart is beating

A gentle, smiling rhythm

Happily alive
