They met in Santorini, Greece. She was at her doorstep viewing the sunset from Oia town, a glass of Assyrtiko wine in firmly gripped in her hand. Her JBL bluetooth speaker oozed and blared soothing jazz. A really good combo with wine, in a peaceful eventide. Down the street was Shawn. He had been distracted …
This bird knocks its beak on my window every morning. Then it dives into chirping, which is invariably followed by copious other chirps from a distance. The only sad part is when I draw my curtains to watch it do its thing, it flaps its wings and fly away. In disappointment, I sink. It has …
