Lull in our sails

 It was bound to happen! I detected a lull

in our sails... the winds of opportunity

have subsided. Now we must row our boat

and travel to our ports.  Our destinations

and activities are not clear as we take life

one day at a time. This sense of adventure,

this status quo work with each other and offer

choppy waters on which to sail. It's always fun,

of course, like when we were younger and comfort 

could not find a couch to lay on.

Inside we feel unsure whether we can do all this

and let our trodden path become neglected.

Change is in the air! We know how to deal with it,

but change is change. Something new replaces

something old. Then we feel nostalgia, our previous

life in toll. The price we must pay for our new found

love A friendship requires time set aside. In a busy

schedule, this time is not there naturally. We must

fill the gaps. Does this friendship become just another

chore? It's up to us to keep the flame burning bright.

Even when our surroundings are not ideal, when

we find ourselves in uncomfortable situations.

This is the source of where future oblivion can grow!

Do we know what is truly good for us? All I know,

on my part, is that what I offer you is true. Does this

ring a bell for you? Anche tu cominci a suonare

le tue campane! E' tempo di festa! Sunset Love is here

and it cannot wait. Time to travel in a mutual carriage 

as often as can be! The rest will be what will be!
