The carpet meanders down the hall
like time meanders in my life.
Sometimes busy, stressed out.
No time for dawdling.
Other times life is more laid back.
Enjoyable times enjoying
music and nature.
I will go far afield to
Rome, Florence, Milan,
London, New York,
Bath, Oxford, Cambridge and
Montreaux Switzerland to say
hello to Freddie but
i will always return to Doonan,
to Roberto and Renate where
I will find the long and winding carpet
leading to my door.
A door partnered with key of
beads, jewels and a juicy cherry tomato.
