Dates

Dates

have a way

of pulling you in

Drawing you back

into the past

even if only for one day

That alone

is cause for celebration

Dates

Thoughts

It’s funny how you can forget about things, people and places but then a date or a smell or song can bring them to mind. In this way we able to time-travel. It’s a beautiful thing.

I still have this jacket. I wore it today. It’s over twenty year old and I love it. It has had some adventures. Here it is in a Parisian courtyard circa 2010.
