I've been sleeping with quite literally a 'block of wood' the last couple of nights.Some of you will be familiar with the feeling I'm sure, but let's not go there.
I found it. I'll call it it, rather than him or her, just in case you think I'm kinky or weird, when I was out wandering.
Not much to look at, I'll grant you, a bit rough around the edges and obviously hewn by a man with a heavy blunt instrument.
However, as they say about beauty, it's within and so I thought I'd take it within and put it on the fire when I was overcome by the familiar and beautiful fragrance of freshly cut 'Macracarpa' wood.
Rather than moaning with pleasure where I was, I returned home to TFT with my newfound treasure thinking about love at first sight and realised this was love at first sniff.
That's how she, woops, I mean it, came to be lying next to my pillow when I sleep.
And no, the earth hasn't moved and nor do I have to say 'sorry, was it your turn' or 'stop snoring darling'.
It's the simple things in life that give the most pleasure...
And it is fragrance that stays in one's memory the longest.
ReplyDeleteI think you're right DD, I can't quite remember...
ReplyDeleteIts the quiet ones you have to watch. Your new bedfellow/ess oddly enough has the look of a Saw itself.
ReplyDeleteWow, yes. How come I didn't saw that...
