Virginia's Birthday

Virginia is with her sister and parents at her cousins' house in Brevard, where tonight fireworks will celebrate two birthdays, the country's and hers. On a walk through Abbo's Alley, I found myself wishing I were there, too, until I stopped and watched the wind breathe across the pond.



For that brief time, I thought of nothing, and then I thought how lucky I am to know my great-niece Virginia and love her. Wherever she is. she breathes beauty, too.
