It's been a week since I saw you last time
and then only for an evening at the movies.
There was another week without seeing you!
It's probably better not to see each other too
often! Waiting for you now gives me pleasant
thoughts about this interlude. I am literally
on edge counting the minutes or hours
(whichever one comes first) before you arrive!
For I know that your smile and shining bright eyes,
your hug will make my day! Is that all? Well, it's
plenty because we are going for a walk or just
choose to do whatever we want. By now all is good,
whatever the activity! What matters is to be together.
Happiness after all comes sometimes from
the simplicity of our expectations. No need
for much as long as we go out and have fun
together. See the sights, stop under trees
and statues, gaze at the flowing Merri Creek,
drive through our busy Melbourne roads
and enjoy our company, as we catch up
with our big list of daily chores and events.
Our friendship is strong, we can even withstand
an unexpected interruption! Like what has just
happened. I had forgotten that the Telstra
technician was due to come today in our
afternoon meeting. Lucky us that I have so many
books and much to see here in this warehouse
where I spent my days continuing with my various
activities. On the other hand you live near the beach
and have a totally different lifestyle. It's a wonder
that we meet as often as we do! Even with the best
of intentions, sometimes we cannot meet and catch up
for a Sunset evening by the beach or going to one
of our clubs dancing. Well maybe things will improve...
but now let me have this NBN connection. After this
our own connections will be stronger, faster
and more frequently!
