California

Big Bear I met her there She was in the snow. San Clemente By the sea Her hair golden brown. Arcata I like her, Her redwoods running free. from the book The Brooklyn Sunflower by author Patrick Edward Tarpey

I’m not sure I would sit still seeing a big bear. Probably running for my life with the loudest scream somebody help me... Lol! Your book sounds like a great one to read.
