A Thousand Pictures, Three Remain

A thousand pictures, scattered wide,
Moments frozen, side by side.
Laughter, sunsets, faces bright,
Fleeting echoes caught in light.

Yet in the haze of time's embrace,
Only three still hold their place.
One of love, so pure, so true,
One of loss, a tear in blue.
One of hope—a flame so small,
Yet the dearest one of all.

Yes, you have guessed right; I was not having a perfect moment then I discovered these pictures in my Blogger picture drive; fresh air from the past. I will sleep with a smile tonight.

It's been a Long Time Since I've Seen Her

To our daughters; I learned so much from your mother! She was my lover and my bosom friend.

At the end of the summer, I did not have a penny left but was the happiest man alive! Mom had a white 1989 Chevrolet Cavalier station wagon.

I learned what a "Sea Shanty" is in that white Cavalier listening to CBC radio. The station had a show on sai...

For me, it is just about missing your hands, warm body, your words; missing planning something to do together. I must admit, you always had the best ideas. Recently I became a Master Chef , but not the kind of chef popular among all ages; oh, no! I cook your dishes, daring, adventurous, and full of flavor! I set the table and see you on your chair , right opposite to mine displaying my favorite smile, approving the dinner. I remember when you made Spaghetti Tomato Bassilic for the first time. You thought that I was not going to like it. Boy, were you in for a surprise! It became my favorite dinner! You made it for me. What a treat! Oh, Christina, you were the wife I always wanted to have! The fact that we found each other mad...
