Taking Chances



 
I’m pruning azaleas when the storm blows in.
Thunder thunders.
Lightning strikes.
I stand my ground.
The worst HAS happened.
And besides,
I have family there.

This is very good. I hurt for your loss. Your writing about it has been astounding. I've felt your pain, but I would never be able to put words to it as you have. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself.
