Short adventures

I am sitting in guest room of my sister*s home, writing.  Soon I will take a nap.  This trip promises a series of short adventures.  Talking with the woman on the short flight from Dallas to Santa Fe was the first or perhaps second in the series.  Here*s to you, Charlotte.  May your second adventure, which only you can write about, prove to be wonderful.

It is cold.

There is more snow here

In Santa Fe

Than Chicago.

The woman I met

On the hop

From Dallas

Was of course

Unlike anyone

I have met before.

We are both it seems

On short adventures.

When I think about it

There was so much

We didn*t say.

So much remains.

The leg from Dallas

To Santa Fe

Is short.

It is fitting

For a short adventure

Before the other adventures

(Sure to come)

Find their way

To the surface.
