Author's Note
A recent conversation with an elderly lady prompted me to think these thoughts. She reminds me of my current lover, Morgan.

How inspiring ... makes me think of Edna St. Vincent Millay ... candle burning at both ends ...

Yes, that poem came to mind, too:) I love that, especially the line, "it gives a lovely light!"
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends—
It gives a lovely light!
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends—
It gives a lovely light!
