Good Old Days

Golden misty late summer sunrise over mountains and poplar row
Summer’s soft exit.

    1. I actually thought of your heart when I came across this scripture, Tena. It’s a verse I’d never lingered on before and frankly, it surprised me. But isn’t God so wise? I thought of all I’ve missed in the present when longing for and with eyes only on the good old days. Hard as it is, I’ll let them softly pass.
