I prefer Christopher in conversation. In writing, I use C L Couch because it’s a genderless form of my name and, frankly, easier—I have severe writer’s cramp. I mean to be a poet writing spiritual and occasional verse. The photographs used permanently here—for the banner, for my profile—were taken by Debra Danielson, a photographer and friend. You may enjoy more of her work at debra.danielson.org. If you would credit me when quoting my work, I'd be thankful. As I am thankful for your presence here.

Thank you! The moon (half-moon) was big and orange, and the sight stuck with me. Literally, then textually.

Sister, thank you! I hadn’t thought of this as a lullaby, even though I wrote it after a late-night ride home. Your insight is just right!
