I have had days
stare back at me as if to say,
let’s see who will darken first.

Agree Debi.
So beautifully put! I have had many such days of late! Looking forward for a snow day tomorrow.
I am too! Work-from-home-day!
Yeah! Yay!
I’d let the day win!
Good choice!
Dark days come and go. As long as you don’t start talking in some strange language, I reckon is all okay 💛
Smiling. As long as you don’t do that, yes.
Ephemeral. This feeling. You can barely photograph it, but you caught it.
I tried to find the photographer and had no luck. I agree Cindy. She or he caught it beautifully.
Indeed…migraine-all-day kind of dark and long and foreboding. Happy it’s in the rear view mirror.
Aww. So sorry to hear that and glad it has passed.
Me too!
bring it.
Yes, sometimes resisting it takes too much energy 😬
