In there is the question

Do you know how it is
when one wakes at night suddenly
and asks, listening to the pounding heart:
what more do you want,
insatiable?

  1. Catching up on email and posts after a week’s vacation. I spent most of my afternoon today reading the poetry of Czeslaw Milosz. He is a big favorite of mine. Love that I put my book down and then find your post. Life is grand. As Always thanks for sharing.
