Nirvana Honeymoon




 

How many couples on honeymoon, read poetry aloud 
or novels to each other?
Some do consider that a highly, loving, memorable treasure.

On a honeymoon, dare you say?
My unforgettable memory, that I would unflinchingly repeat, 
just bring me back to that day!

Cable car bells ringing in the San Francisco night, oh
so softly heard.
The background to us, newlyweds, such sweet,tender, 
young love birds.

Surrounded by the City's etereal gauze-like moist fog.
How I watched your eyes dance over the words.
Making my heart shine like glowing embers on a log!

I really was so complete with you.
More than any of the finest words can say!
Simply just we two, our love-ghosts still reading can be 
heard, over forever our ~City by the Bay.

Hello Panagiota … a honeymoon is the time when two lovers are in a bubble and the world around them doesn't exist, and something to be forgotten, ever - thanks again Panagiota - Lindsay

Charlie,indeed it is or I shall say....was! The City no longer is a haven of peace and openness it once was. Was lucky enough to be there when it was beautiful and incredibly,,,safe and sane. Even in the early '70s. A majestic place... Hugs, PanagiotA xoxo
