Weary

Inspired by https://fivedotoh.com/2023/08/28/fowc-with-fandango-weary/ Staring out of the window, just watching, with a cup of coffee in her hands. Laura wasn’t sure when the world got so weary.

Loved

Written for https://ragtagcommunity.wordpress.com/2023/08/25/friday-quiver/ My heart is all a quiver on the day I went to meet you. I brought all your toys; including those annoying squeaking ones.
