A Kind Adieux

Upon the French Riviera
in the summer of ninety two
I met the Countess Isadora
when she bid me a kind adieux.

I did not wish to offend her
so I responded to her in kind,
her response surprised me, she
said, "Wait, I have a little time."

On the porch of her villa, as silky
waves rolled into shore, we drank
fine French wine and shared precious
times that I grew to love and adore.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.

Makes me think how much I'd like a holiday with or without the wine.
