a mosquito sings
the song of his nature -
unrequited love

Day after day I shall bless you, I shall praise your name for ever and ever.
Psalm145:2
What's there to smile about today? Tomorrow's moon. August’s Full Sturgeon Moon will illuminate the sky this weekend.
The full moon will appear Sunday and reach peak brightness on Monday.
...
The sturgeon, a large fish common to the Great Lakes and other nearby bodies of water, is most easily caught during this month.

The whole world was asleep and only you shined
On that day I first saw you
It was the start of going to you
Do you know? All the times I missed you?...
Short and sweet! :-)
