REVISITING A RAINY BACK PORCH. Woman, in the full-blown beauty and grace of 43, menopause& grandmotherhood; all of the tools, but none of the courage, to go after dreams left on the wet back porch in a folder after writing odes to the summer rain. A fearless child, who walked with no skin on, become an old woman, with a tough hide to cut through. Looking for me.
