A Gentleman’s Secret

Teddy.15

 

Today, I sat next to

 

an older gentleman on the bus

 

a man I've had the pleasure to known

 

 for many years

 

he once told me

 

he holds in his wallet

 

a concert ticket of the Beatles

 

a concert he went to

 

in Rome in 1975

 

I've always been fascinated

 

by this fact

 

we are very good friends

 

we talk about everything

 

from politics to the weather

 

but even after all these years

 

I still don't know his name.

          Dear Teddy,
          That’s amazing that you still don’t know his name. I imagine that bus ride must be more enjoyable while talking to your friend.
          Thank you for sharing your your “bus ride”.

          Buon weekend.

            Hello dearest Laura, the bus is always entertaining I meet so many different people, but yes this gentleman is one of my favourites in town. Thank you darling friend. ❤️

            the more intimate, a connection
            the more we want to keep it, loose
            unchanging, undefined, unrefined
            just right, for us..
            (I so relate, dear Poetess
            a soothing read
            we small pebbles
            leaning on each other
            swimming along
            in our rivers of fate
            mapping our legacies)

              Thank you dearest Mek, sharing with you is my utmost pleasure. Happy Monday. X

              Nature gives each other no name! They just know who's a friend again and again! Love the feeling behind this and another pleasant read!
              Have a wonderful day

              • Teddy.15

                Thank you so much much dear Dan, I am translating this to give to my friend, I hope he loves it. 🤗
