I settled into the jet stream loosening my grip but you were not there above the clouds and roaring engines. You were the blaze of sun setting on the edge of eternity the rain shower washing over me mingling with the humidity. The buzz of Patron and fireflies slowly easing into the stillness like a self portrait you fly so high beneath the brightest light. Memories blend in harmony a slow burn at the twilight hour completes the circle that held us together you were the warmest smile a crowd of one the life of our party. While the air becomes thin and hard to breathe I can't help my tears like falling stars back peddling for miles I met you there outside the window of my heart. I closed my eyes and felt you near lingering long in the moments of you. |

Thank you very much for all your nice replies. This is about a recent trip I took back east and the void I felt by the death of my brother-in-law. He was the most wonderful human being, the life of our party, with a true heart of gold. Thank you again for indulging me. |

Dear Blusey, You know, the last time I was here I had just missed you, and I wasn't sure if I would ever see, your words again, but, something these last few days kept telling me, go check in with your friends at PIP and so I finally do, and... here you are. It's really nice to see you again. How sorry I am for you and your family's loss, I'm sure your brother in law was the most wonderful person, and that you will all miss him so very dearly. Well, let me just say, welcome home dear friend, its been too, too, long. I've been worrying about you. Nice to have you back! Richard xx |

I do enjoy your romantic touch. And I'm happy to find your pen still works. Thank you. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, |
