Sweet Tanqerines As I rubbed her hand, Meme told me of her rough life. Even as a young girl she lived a life of trouble and strife. As she rubbed my hand I told her I had lived a rough life as well. And as we talked and shared stories I realized that she had an interesting story she wanted to tell. She shared a bag of sweet tangerines with me. The kind that are fabuously sweet and melt inside your mouth deliciously. I told her that her legs were beautiful and her words didn't skip a beat. Each time I complimented her appearance she would just look at me kind of sweet. Every now and then she would stop everything and just look me in the eyes. And then we would continue to eat sweet tanquerines, dried squid, and talk stories of relationships and love that had passed us by. It was getting late so I told her that it was time for me to go. She said wait I have some delicious vegetables...they're good for you, you know. She brought me a bag of farm grown cucumbers and before I drove off into the night this lovely woman that I enjoyed talking to gave me a sweet kiss goodnight. JamesLee March11 2003 |

Beautiful, James. You appreciated her gifts, even if they were probably different from those you expected in a first moment. And the common cucumbers became quite special! Margherita |
