The current issue of Singout features a song by the group Mad Agnes: Let this be my prayer. I dog-eared the page, determined to learn it some day, since it speaks so eloquently to my bereavement, although it's for those who are further along than I am. But my dear friend Alouette called and told me "We're singing this song for the Solstice concert".
Who's "we?" Not me!
Oh, yes.
Alouette, along with three other women who frequently performed with my beloved, and yes, I too, all sang this lovely song this past Saturday night in honor of all those we mourn, and I did it without breaking down.
