Today the new Roaring Bull was christened, and I wanted you to be
next to me as you had been, twenty years ago. Before it had succumbed
to dry rot and vandalism, we stood against the rail, watching the
burnished trees
on the other side grow before our eyes, and we welcomed the birth of
autumn.

She called this morning, Sir, to say that she was sick. She sounded
okay, but how can you tell? How does a sick person sound? She didn't say
what was wrong, just that she was sick and wouldn't be coming into work.

My daughter stood before me, as pretty in pink as a teenage girl could
be. I added a little spit on an errant curl, then stood back to admire
my
creation.

The moon was full the night Carrie and I became best friends. The street
was blue in the moonlight, ice blue, and my breath was a cloud of grey
mist rolling past my lips.
