or open this book
I open my mouth
wait for an answer
...answer always already
the knocking of my heart
promises folding around
surrounding me like love
...love you, for I love you
and I know how I love you
every one of you, I know you
can remind me of no one else
Pic: Picnic at KV's... so many generations of women and children. I appreciated this lovely summer afternoon with Nu: destressing, snacking, reconnecting, and cuddling babies. (It was especially welcome after an all-morning, in-person meeting for our departmental re-visioning.)

It would be nice to have a baby to cuddle every now and then. No one I know has one. My fiends are too old and our kids are too young.
I highly recommend baby cuddling, StephLove! I too don't have any close friends with babies though. Pre-pandemic, I was looking into volunteering as a baby cuddler at the hospital...
