If it's one for The Lady
and maybe two on the road?
Then my wheels must headed
along 101 to the Channel Islands,
to seek another sunset of gold
before this heart turns stone cold
and is no longer able to recall a fall
upon the beaches one year when the sky was clear
and the moon was golden yellow
(was that a line from an old song?)
and I was partaking of a gourmet sunset
abrillenos, and some wine or beer, I cannot recall
but all in all, it was a glorious moment in time
and yes, I remember how to cook
those pounded  abalone steaks,
wrapped in anaheim chilis
topped with melt-in-your-mouth cheese
and candlelight
no, make that moonlight

but I was alone,
missing you at sunset,
for you had already flown away

umm Kacy??

Yeah, it HIT me there...

  Brava m'friend!!

seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna
