I thought I had a road map in the car trunk with the spare. I thought we had a compass and I really thought you cared. So sure of our direction that I didn't check the fuel. And so, our love has stalled now, and I look just like a fool. I thought we had provisions that would last...

I couldn't give a toss for the caber cromach bagpipes sporran or kilt (a fling's the thing) and you can stick your dirk in your haggis up to its bog-wood hilt yet I'd like to hike through the heather on happy Sassenach holidays see the scenery admire the view along Scottish hilly highways and byways to pick a pink-purple thistle or two and should I...

I used to ride the train from school to home and back, every other weekend, in an old Pullman car built in the nineteen-thirties.

They were active professionals, dwelling in a charming, bustling town; As warbling charms orange noon, after pink mist clears, with no sound.

Wed, 2024.05.01 By May, three months went passed, We enjoyed three day trips to the nature. We respected and polite to each other. Somehow I started having feelings for you.

We gasp with wonder about creations and search for other words to make each verse stronger. Each of us has written volumes by now the lives we shared month-by-month.
