Lovely find. It didn’t even feel like a sonnet (mine are always so brittle and forced). Best of all, it reminded me of the father I miss. Thank you again.

The First Festival was in Deadwood, October 3-5, 2003. The South Dakota Humanities Council and the Adams Museum were the co-sponsors. It was a bluebird sky and golden aspen setting 7 years ago–let’s hope for the same this year!
