Monthly Archives: July 2018

Exactly a year since post #1. At the time, we called it our growing old together project. We drew up a contract, defined the basic provisions, signed it, laughed, felt good….

I’m afraid.
Of many things.
But with you,…

It’s summer time.
I can’t bear the heat.
You’re the ice cubes….

Just to dive in,
Lose track of time,
Oneself….

You look fresh.
Thanks, you too!
But it’s time to be picked….

Parts of me are old.
Others bent,
Out of place,…

Wash over me…
Sing.
Splash….

Narrow, yet there’s light.
I can see the end.
Shall I walk?…

Man-made:
Planned.
Developed….

Soar,
Be free,
Alone,…

You – “Why did you explode?”
Me – “So you could see me.”
You – “But half of you is empty!”…

Today I look at you.
No one else.
Life seems hazy,…

Alone.
Majestic.
Casting shadows,…

Today,
The window finally opened.
A barely perceptible face….

Hazy.
Yet glittering,
Bright….

His kumquats aren’t as plentiful this year.
But they’re still there.
His days are waning,…
