You definitely have a strong understanding of how time works here. Loved the beautiful words you used to describe it! ๐ LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
I like your alliteration here, Cyn, especially “months had moseyed on.” That time, it keeps on moving no matter what we do. LikeLiked by 1 person Reply
