Happy Birthday to you know who.
NaPoWriMo 2026, Day 28 prompt: Write a poem that follows the beats of Victoria Chang’s poem, “The Lovers”: three sentences, six lines: statement, question, conclusion.
It’s coming around again
to the deep feeling for her music.
Has it been so many years
since her young voice made me love?
Enter my mind again with pleasure
lasting a lifetime.

Happy Birthday Yolanda!

She is fine. It happens. One of those where the ER doc says, “If you were under 65, I’d send you home.” Turned out it was serious but we did right to get help immediately. 🙂

Good. Gotta love those types of ER docs… I’d send you home to suffer the consequences because I don’t want to look further? And since it turned out serious, thankfully you did!
