I am still "young enough" :

that I can fall in love deeply again.

stare in wonder at the bright full moon...

wander aimlessly in my mind...gazing into the expanse of the indigo night sky dotted with twinkling stars...

get sweaty palms when I am waiting for her arrival...

have my heart go pitty patter when she calls and I answer the phone..and she says softly..."hey you...it's me"...

love a good p-nut butter and jelly sammich...

find joys in the simplest of things in life...

that my heart isn't jaded & cynical...I DO believe in "happily ever after" and falling in love...again..

that age is JUST a number...and I am "experienced, seasoned, and know what I want in life and still go after life with gusto.

some cartoons still are a pleasure to watch....

that I enjoy blowing bubbles at the beach or flying a kite is so much fun....

I still LOVE to open a brand new box of Crayola crayons and inhale deeply...

I love to dance like no one is watching...

be kissed goodnight or sung to sometimes to go to sleep....

being able to have and enjoy a crush or two...and know the innocuousness of it...

like to lick the batter bowl and beaters....after I have made a cake...

drink juice from the jug....

steal her kisses when she isn't looking...
