That was the observation.

The question we ask is why and where and when?

Who did this and did anyone else know?

Secrets kept for decades, revealed at last.

Just want to drive it before there are none left.

Well…we’ll leave that to the imagination.

Here we are treading carefully, taking steps from waterlily to waterlily.

The sun, at the peak horizon of the sky, the fog hardly filling the valley, and coffee bubbling and ready to share.

We are gently stroking our brow and relaxing our gaze as we speak.

It’s all going to work out fine.
