Shangha Surprise

"You have me and I have you,
  and right now that seems to
    have a paramount importance."

Someone once told me that women
are everywhere, but that doesn't
do me much good if they're not
where I want them to be, like
wrapped in my arms, touching my
lips with their soft fingertips,
the fragrance of perfume mixed
within the sweet taste of a kiss.
I should clarify the above statement
because there's only one woman I want
and need and love, and for years upon
years we've been in and out of each
other arms; exploring the possibilities,
taking advantage of our compatabilites,
and blending our desires and personalities.
I'm smart enough to know that I'll never
find another one as special as her.

"I wish that I could tell you
     how much I love her."

James,

This is very lovely.  I’ve worked a number of times in China, but I never visited Shanghai.   I spent my time there in Fuzhou.  I’d love to return, but I know I never will.

It’s been years, and I'm old.

Bobby

You do get your message through, dear James.

She is a lucky woman to be loved this way and you seem to know the gift ... reciprocal gift that springs from your souls.

Beautiful.

Love,
Margherita

May your love light continue to burn brightly!
