Pale sunlight,
pale the wall.
Love moves away.
The light changes.
I need more grace
than I thought.

Sigh…as do I.
Rumi so wise. We’ve all been here.
Oh, yeah! Eye candy…
All you.

Thank you.
Me too Carrie.
Its a couple weeks too late for me, but lovely, and may come in handy again.
I always look forward to your Lightly posts
Thanks!
Grace is a gift and so is Rumi. 🙏🏻
Yes to both!

Beautiful.
Well said – an extra dose of grace. I think i needed two this last week. Good news is, we get a do-over next week!
Me three!
