THE REDHEAD FOREVER

She loved Leonard Cohen. So, how better to celebrate her memory than with this wonderful video for which I thank the uploader.
The second song makes me think of a Canadian author, Louise Penny, that I love.
Her Acknowledgements as written in her Novel 'How the Light Gets In' are really touching.
For anyone fancying quality Mystery Stories, I'd recommend starting from her first novel, featuring Inspector Gamache ( I'm sad to say her last one disappointed me but all the previous stories were absolutely wonderful).
Canada seems to be home to many fine persons.
Sole loved One of them especially.

What If?



What if …
            … we met?
What if …
            … we smiled nervously and hugged?
What if …
            … we sipped coffee and chocolate at a small cafĂ©?
What if …
            … we walked along the shore holding hands, looked at one another, and kissed?
What if …
            … we watched the sun set, dusk settle like a velvet cloak, and the stars peek down on us as we sipped Armagnac from a secret flask?
What if …
            … after a very hectic day of business, clients, and seemingly interminable meetings, You were greeted with an elegant table set with a warm nourishing meal by a loving companion in a serene comfortable haven?
What if …
            … we went to Your room and made love? Gentle, sensuous, languorous, sweet, loving. Hard, raw, fierce, savage, wild, urgent, passionate.
What if …
            … we sat quietly together holding hands whilst listening to a Mozart opera?
What if …
            … we shared raspberry Gelato on a summery warm afternoon?
What if …
            … we smiled nervously as You fastened my collar?
What if …
            … we met?
