Brothers each unwrap their own.
Long shot for sharing.

to brighten gray winter days,
recall the spring.

Author’s note: Apologies for the lack of a more substantive post. I shifted into holiday mode last week and have been coasting towards my favorite holiday ever since. Happy Thanksgiving to my American friends.
Night of sleep so deep,
morning comes as a welcome,
everyone rested.

peering down at the descent,
hope for steady path.

spilt from civilized closets,
everyday nightmares.
Steve D

or, find what is still unknown,
an endless question.

Woodland walkabout,
choose-your-own adventure stroll,
to live new stories.
