No, Andrea....the one in the contest was "Last Tango"; the same visual later inspired this one. Thanks for the 'like'. // paul

Well there is nothing more romantic than that. Nice flow of words attracting the reader, creating a message that floats above the words reinforced by the explicit imagery. Emile. #7

Thank you Jan:) My first entry was a mad dash; this one came as I was quietly eating pizza at the airport restaurant. The other was sad...this one the opposite!! She must have said YES! Hugs // paul
