Covid again for everyone! and I was current with vaxes which vexes the soul missing church and poetry and chess and doctor's visits and FHE this past week such a mess the mind can't take it all in but at least I'm at home albeit alone a grass widower still at best and the Church Christmas party was so sublime I hope all 100 of those who were with me for jury duty are fine :) - 12/13/2023

Hope you are improving quickly and family members to. Possibly away to avoid reinfection. Where are they all? And what is FHE?
Government planned a second shot for those older than 60 in spite or because of the festivities, because variants and infections are increasing again. Trying to get my shot today.

Enjoyed: "He tossed his pipes, too hard to teach / A new-world song, far out of reach, / For sylvan sign that the blue jay's screech / And the whimper of hawks beside the sun / Were music enough for him, for one." :)

"Alas, My Brother!..." Again a very sad poem. Nora Penbroke (pseudonym of Margaret Dixon McDougall) is an Irish poet from 19 C. Her Bio in Wikipedia is very scant, no mention of personal losses is made.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Dixon_McDougall
