LOngfellow bridge

Was it the Longfellow Bridge? Massachusetts? One night we crossed a bridge on foot, Dominique, my travel friend this summer 1989, And seated we contemplated Boston at night, Summer was hot, the city friendly and joyful, We talked two hours about this new country, The lights of Boston were full of Promises, There was something soothing about America. Était-ce le pont de Longfellow ? Massachussetts ? Une nuit nous avons franchi un pont à pied, Dominique, mon amie de voyage cet été 1989, Et assis nous avons contemplé Boston la nuit, L’été était chaud, la ville amicale et joyeuse, Nous avons parlé deux heures de ce nouveau pays, Les lumières de Boston étaient pleines de Promesses, Il y avait quelque chose d’apaisant en Amérique. PS, un souvenir qui est resté dans mon coeur, bisous

America is a great country. I had the fortune to visit America four times. My brother was in Pennsylvania. There is a famous university there. Hope you still have connections with Dominique, your travel partner.
