A Few of My Favorite Things


Peanut butter & jelly sandwiches.

Hot malasada's freshly done.

Swimming at Ko Olina.

Soaking up the Hawaiian sun.

Hiking at the Pali Lookout.

An afternoon spent at the Honolulu Zoo.

Sharing precious parts of a day

with a woman as soft & sweet as you.

Besides the peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, which I have never tasted, I fully understand your list, dear James. Happy for you, lucky man.

Love,

As I read your poem, the music to "These Are a Few of My Favorite Things" from the Sound of Music, was playing in my head!

Enjoyed the peak into your Favs!

~ Sweet ending!

James,

I just finished the last of my Peanut Butter and Marmalade sandwich as I read your poem.  It's sweet - the poem (and my sandwich).
