“It’s not that you didn’t know words—It’s that, from the centuries, you knew so many, and it’s hard to choose the words that will be your own.”

So many beautiful lines here, but this one really stopped me.

Thank you Megan Willome for choosing this line from "Capturing the Scent of Rain." What a lovely surprise! It’s from my book, No Such Thing as Distance (Terrapin, 2018)

“And during drought

there’s still a dab behind the ear

or in the hollow

above the wishbone.”
