Evelyn: Have had a few dates, a few drawbacks, and disappointments, and the taste of something delightful but uncertain... so I ended a "date" early and disappeared to the causeway to stare at the stars. Solitude in a place where I have felt safe with a friend (who happens to be far away at school) and delighted myself instead on the possibilities between the stars, the moon, and the quiet chirp of cicadas. I have had numerous late visits here... lit only by the lights of the city and moon... and the gentle conversation with a trusted friend. I miss those conversations... being wrapped in a sweater... as the breeze moves through ... the sound of a voice, easy and encouraging.
Where is Monica?
