    • Very excited and very grateful. My son Michael will be coming back to American soil in about 12 days I want to thank all of you for your prayers and well wishes and strength.

    Pixie Moon
    I could not sleep.
    The moon slipped quietly,
    Unnoticed,
    Into my bedroom,
    Tickling my nose
    And tugging at the covers,
    Taking great delight in my discomfort.
    She did not cease,
    Filling my dreams with too many thoughts.
     

    The stars gathered 'round her
    To witness her pleasure.
    Try as I might to ignore her,
    Dancing from headboard  to foot,
    Her impish behavior
    Kept me at sleeps edge
    All night.
    I must remember to lock the window.
    Tonight
    I must keep that Pixie
    OUT!
