Remember being in my twenties & desperately wanting my mind to take a break & stop -- now in my sixties I am in a period where I am absolutely grateful that it doesn't . . . However, I deeply appreciate the beauty, sounds that echo, the dark & light of shadow, & sentiments, of this poem. Thanks, Joseph, for sharing it with us.
