In conversation, I prefer Christopher. My mom named me after Christopher Robin, after all. In writing, I use “C L Couch” (or, more simply, “c l couch”) because the form is genderless and also frankly easier to use. I have awful writer’s cramp. I am an educator more or less retired, more or less due to disability. At present, I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (USA). My writing here I mean to be occasional and also devotional. Either or both. The banner and profile photographs are by my friend and peer Debra Danielson. More of Debbie’s work to be enjoyed is at debradanielson.org. Thanks to each of you and both and all for coming to my blog.

Silence and quiet is a freedom. I think you say, not everybody has this Liberty. But it is nice and gratifying, when we do have times without noise. Lovely poem

Thanks, Mandi, for sharing how you see the poem. I think having quiet for a time, inside and out, isn’t available for everyone. Though I wish everyone could have some time in peace. (From time to time.)

Yes, you are very right Christopher. 🙂

Mortal noise- spoke to me the most. I love this. The need and want of a settled soul.
Wonderfully penned my friend.
Enjoy a gorgeous weekend!
