Her river-melt eyes

Puts me in mind of the line from the Joni Mitchell tune, “River” where she says, ..”oh I wish I had a river, I could skate away,on” ❤

Excellent job using the words – wouldn’t have guessed you “had to” use them.

It’s interesting that you excel at love and zombie poetry…seems like different ends of the spectrum, so I applaud your talent to corral both!
