What Edna Said
My contribution to Monochromia this week.
Thank you to the lovely Julia at Defeat Despair for introducing me to the poem First Fig by Edna St. Vincent Millay.
My last post was a reflection about the fullness of life, and this one is also about life’s challenges. Have no fear, though. All is well and I plan to be riding the bike for a little bit tomorrow.
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends—
It gives a lovely light!
