Written on the tree, in Love.

My former sweetheart was visiting from LA.  As we walked around Owen’s Rose Garden in the late summer 2013 sunshine, we reminisced about our life together, which had begun in the 1970’s and lasted through the 1990’s. During those years, we had raised our daughter, worked at our professions, and traveled for adventure. Our life paths permanently diverged in 2001, but our love for our family remained.

Now we walked hand in hand in the garden, chatting and laughing. Our shadows suddenly fell onto a tree trunk,  flanking a spot on the bark where natural discoloration formed a heart.

Oh look – a message from the tree goddess! “Yes,” pronounced the tree, “Sweethearts still.”
