CHRISTMAS WEEK - Tuesday After - Met You at the Party

There are lots of parties and gatherings in and around Christmas Week, lots of opportunities for people to meet, for conversations to happen, for glances exchanged across the room, for situations to begin, and sadly, for situations to end...it is a cold and bittersweet time made warm sometimes by human kindness (or a hot drink)....

IT'S TOO BAD WE MET AT THIS PART OF THE BOOK




It's too bad we met at this part of the book


When it's almost at the end


I wish it could have been earlier


Maybe somewhere on Page Ten


When everything was all brand new


And we had no problems then






And so


I bow  to the laws of gravity


I am caught by the pull


of your heart


across the provinces


and highways....


the start of this adventure


and wherever the path will bend....






(to be continued)
