My mother would often tell me I put the cart before the horse. She was right. I would think or step too far ahead than where I actually was; in the waiting. The yearning for hopes and desires can be like a desert without rain when deferred days, months, or even years without an answer…

Stepping Into Sunset
Take my hand and step with me into hues of late summer warmth, where I long to chase feathers with you again.
