The air was warm with an exotic charm,
Not Canada at all
And a small northern lake;
A land of soft desire.
A depth of turquoise fire,
A height of foreign stars
Only the water glittered
In a cool northern way
Sparkling against the rocks.

Thank you! And to you! I like that you set up your tree on Christmas Eve, and I really liked seeing the photograph of your husband and son. Thinking of you often. Andrea xo
