YESTERDAY ENDED LAST NIGHT

We did not like the day to end But it was yesterday when we had fun. And yesterday ended last night. We had so much fun yesterday But yesterday is not today and fun is not forever. We had fun scaling the hills along bamboo grooves that resounded the excitement in your laughters. Sliding down the... Sign in to see full entry.

A little maiden climbs an old man's knee begging for a story "say, uncle say, why are your single? Why live alone?" "Have you no babies? Have you no home?"

LONLINESS IS A TRAITOR

IT WAS THE 6TH OF SEPTEMBER WHEN THE HEAT OF THE SUN LURED US INTO THAT OLD ICE CREAM PARLOR. I GAZED AT YOUR FACE AND WHEN YOUR EYES MET MINE I SAW THE LONELINESS DOWN DEEP IN YOUR HEART. I CANT EXPLAIN WHY I SUDDENLY TOUCHED YOUR HAND THAT WAITS TO HOLD MINE. I WATCHED AS YOU LICKED ICE CREAM ON...
