A Distinguished Gentleman This romantic feast set before a hungry palette, unleashes a slow-cooker barbecue that's been sweetly simmering since the beautiful moment two wide open searching eyes... Tasted the distinctive flavor of a distinguished gentleman. Winds of pleasure seldom crossed his darkened paths, since he rode a distinctively different horse. A horse many say was slyly eating away his life. The pale, cold, lifeless, faces that he cautiously encountered each day, hauntingly displayed the perils that encroached upon their lives. He found it bitterly difficult to cheerily involve himself in delightful adventures that took place within the grasping reach of his forever understanding friends. Then came an extraordinary day no pale, cold, lifeless faces to greet him this day. Instead what appeared before him... A beautiful, warm, smiling face, and two wide open searching eyes... |
