Well, this was fun although I did guess the ending at least half-way down (the oceanic blue eyes giving it away!) You're an old smoothie aren't you, Tom! Great entry for the contest. Good luck! Debbie

If you guess it was me, you're smarter than Yogi Berra. Thank you.

Well if the only fiction is the color of her hair, I say the two of you are a real live love story. It is great when after all those years you are still very much in love and enjoying life to the finish. It is great story. I had that kinf of relationship too for 61 year and still have wonderful memories.

It took me 29 years to find one that would accept me and my intricacies, but I landed a good one that taught me the world did not revolve around me and me alone. And the best thing is she improved the original.

Yes, indeed, as my profile declares, I am a romantic extraordinaire!
And if you had met her, you would have been as well, not that you aren't but not with my gal, no siree. As always, Yours East Coast Tom. Someone on FS monikered me that, and I forget who. maybe, it was you.

I'll give it a go - to have a blessed day - as long as the aches stay away, but as you know that may be asking more than an older carriage will allow.

I definitely can relate to that, Tom! But we can hope, right?
Comment from rspoet
Hello Tom,
You've managed to encapsulate the theme of young at heart perfectly in this marvelous journey into the world of memories. Excellent dialogue that has the ring of truth with the gentle tease that trust and time instill.
Pat Boone and Love Letters in the Sand, "on a day like today, we pass the time away writing love letters in the sand" or something like that. A different time, a different world.
Well done.
Best wishes to all and good luck in the contest.
Robert

Thank you. I hope you consider sharing a recollection in this contest I created. "Young at Heart" There was a challenge for a romance story but it had a 2000 word minimum and mine is far less than required.which
