“...I pray this winter be gentle and kind - a season of rest from the wheel of the mind...”
John Geddes A Familiar Rain

Anthony Liccione
“She stared at me, like day stares at an hourglass and night, the sand trickling through time; the sea disappearing to eyes in the dark. But I hear her waves coming in, as she whispers one last chance goodbye.”
Anthony Liccione
