"Death and life are in the power of the tongue," Proverbs something something. This is a lovely post. Can't wait to emerge to see, once more, the stars.

As I read this I couldn't help think of the words being used by Trump and Vance and all the other jackasses in politics including our new govenor and senator from WV. God help us all!
