A Proposal from “Rocky”: For Kathryn
Good morning when it’s morning
Good night when it is night
Good evening when it’s dark out
Good day when it is light
Good morning to the sunshine
Good evening to the sky
And when it’s time to go away
Good-bye
Good-bye
Good-bye.
Kathryn,
I offer you my hand sincerely.
With compassion.
From one curious human to another.
With grace and appreciation.
I will get down on my knees now and thank you,
As I thank each blade of grass for rearing its head.

@SaveTheDateDC: Dear Rocky,
Such playful prose makes me feel our hour may be as equally sweet. I may well wed thee, until the grass under my feet grows, and it’s time to move on.
