Sea Change
It's hard to remember every memory during a pandemic much seems beyond your grasp, submerged in the gentle, rolling silver blue waters parted by a sliver of light Or perhaps it's the passing of the years the travail of loss the propensity for trauma bestowed upon us We are sailing coming about! echoes of joy abound and warnings from many...
