Empires. Breaking waves.

Arcing moon. Your tiny chest.

Rise ... And fall ... And rise ...

About the Creator

Sonia Heidi Unruh

I love: my husband and children; all who claim me as family or friend; the first bite of chocolate; the last blue before sunset; solving puzzles; stroking cats; finding myself by writing; losing myself in reading; the Creator who is love.

    There's like eternity here but also fragility. I think it's empires that makes me feel like it could all come crashing down. Not the waves or the moon.
