Ya. That's my darlin' Dan. Through different time zones, we've found each other. I hope all the other times were as happy as this one. )))

Just beautiful, Sharron! Your words shape a longing for the one who you have carried in your dreams forever, and who now stands before you. *sigh*

The treasure hunt is over with the shine of a smile that fills the once empty space with a glow of light richness.

"Along the pebbled lines of a falling tide." Love that image. Beautiful prose Sharron.

Your voice overs are so expressive too.

Beautiful.

I agree. Romance never leaves the feminine heart.

And I wonder if it ever leaves the male heart; or does it turn to bitterness?

Hmm. I have never thought of that.

I know that feeling!

Yes, Janice. I know you do.

Thanks, John. Probably not your reading preference, but I'm glad you read it! I don't write much poetry, but sometimes a 100-word poem is easier to write than a 100-word story.

I find both to have their own challenges.

Tears in my eyes, Sharron. Your words are beautiful, and guess what, this is one of 'our' songs. One of mine and Jim's. Thank you so much. xxx

I am embarrassed to say I just discovered Johnny Flynn and the Detectorists. I watched all three seasons in five days...

A bit of romance you say..maybe more than a bit, romance for anything uplifts not only you, but whatever you are romancing!

Yes!!
