A Postcard:<\/p>\n

Madeline:<\/p>\n

Somebody far in the distance is strumming a guitar. Just beneath the hum of the fan, I can hear it drifting in through the open window. It enters so softly, as if a daydream of romance that\u2019s now free of its moorings and lost in the streets.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I look across the street into the illuminated parking garage and as if summoned, there\u2019s a young and attractive couple in Rock n\u2019 Roll clothes holding hands. I have to look through the dark into captured light, and the way the garage is lit makes it look like a theater and the couple is on stage, and they are so very happy they might actually be skipping. When they come upon the striped parking garage gate arm, they delighted even further, and bending back they both did the limbo beneath it, still holding hands, laughing and smiling at one another, unaware that anybody was watching.<\/p>\n

Love,<\/p>\n
