the 17th of JAN

peering skyward

listened to music this afternoon

playlists on a forgotten iPod

caught in the beat, my ears were happy

commiserating over the Viking’s loss last night, I reconnect with an old friend

By julieallyn | January 14, 2025

a simple text

no effort at all, really;

gratitude, on repeat –

happy I’d reached out
