Walking on smooth pathways through the landscapes,
spouses with playful children, embraced in sun.
If I could live like that, I won’t mind at all…


There he stands, a few feet away…
Focused. Joyful. Attractive.
Positive and invigorating.


Years later…
Love and joy connect.
My children scamper through the landscapes.
