And then her heart changed, or at least she understood it; and the winter passed, and the sun shone upon her.
~ J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King
I have drunk the night
and swallowed the stars.
I am dancing with abandon
and singing with rapture.
There is not a thing I do not love.
There is not a person I have not forgiven.
I feel a universe of love.
I feel a universe of light.
Tonight, I am with old friends
and we are returning home.
The moon is our witness.

@Anemone Wow.😮
Ninety-nine, below zero
Would seem like fever now
You know me… no hero
Don’t even ask me how
I’m down in the deep deep freeze
What was I thinking of…
In the painful breeze
By the frozen trees
With a heart disease called love

Things are so hard to figure out when you live from day to day in this feverish and silly world.
~ Jack Kerouac
This song makes my heart open wide.
I want all the best for each of you.
