With gratitude to n. h. bourne for
her inspiration for the title of this poem!
Banff by Night
the cloud hovers above us
raindrop washings
cleansing our leaves
of loss and inadequacy
renewing us
with freshness and determination
to begin again
in purity and strength

Thank you, Andy! I was in Edmonton, Alberta, this past April, and I believe I shot it the evening of April 7th. I hesitated putting it with those words—glad you like it! Thank you for your encouragement! Hope all is well with you and your daughter!
