 Ariele, My Halloween Dream

Now, I'm so happy I could 
SCREAM. 

And I do all for the frightening
Love of you.

Some people run, some people dance,
but with Ariele I'm so entranced.

Happy Halloween Birthday from your ever-lovin' husband

 
This is Elizabeth when we first rescued the three kittens. Note the still blue eyes.

SHARING STORIES is a weekly column for and about the 50 plus crowd living in the Puget Sound region. Send your stories and photos to ariele@comcast.net. Tell local or personal stories; discuss concerns around aging and other issues; share solutions, good luck, and reasons to celebrate; poems are fine too. Pieces may be edited or excerpted. We reserve the right to select among pieces. Photos are always a plus and a one-sentence bio is requested (where you live, maybe age or career, retired status, etc.).
