THIS WEEK’S WORDS come from “As imperceptibly as grief” by Emily Dickinson: grief, summer, away, distilled, drew, dusk, courteous, grace, guest, wing, escape, light
With grace so balancing
Distilled light
Escape from grief summer away
Guest courteous traveling
On his plight
From dusk to dawn his breakaway
With his wings so grappling
From this height
Draw his strength words to convey
From day to day battling
High as kite
Finally no more masquerade
In his defense raveling
He’s all right
Balancing his act everyday
So he could be gambling
Without fright
His own way Monday to Sunday*
