Friday Poem

Greetings from St. Paul on day 191 of 2020. Six months and 9 days have passed or 52.46% of the year. Sunrise is at 5:36 am and sunset at 8:59 pm. The streak of days in which the sun set at 9:00 pm or later is over (25 days starting June 14 and ending July 9).  It is National Kitten Day.

Another quote from George Will''s Washington Post column  on missing baseball (Star Tribune 6.25.2020).  Vin Scully, the Dodgers announcer for 67 years once said, "Andre Dawson has a bruised knee and is listed as day-today. Aren't we all?

The poem for this friday is by Bruce Guernsey.

The poem's title references a famous photograph taken by photographer Alfred Eisenstaedt, "V-J Day in Times Square."
