GG wrote about what she likes on her blog, and invited readers to add their likes. I’ve copied my response here, and I invite you to add yours. (Warning – as soon as you think you’ve finished, your mind will flood with a thousand things you left out. Chief of mine: Kisses, kisses, kisses, kisses, but also oceans, beaches, Halloween, gardens, lavender, hammocks, Thai food, butter, more love, afternoons in bed, listening to the rain, cotton sheets, soft blankets. Once you start, it’s really hard to stop..)

I like roses and autumn leaves, candlelight and looking in through evening windows at the life inside. Blue and purple and glitter, black hats and black cats, silver, poetry, promises. Friends, love, chocolate and coffee. Farmers’ Markets on Sunday morning, honey sticks, sunflowers, fat radishes, warm bread, sultry strawberries. Learning, seeing, museums, long walks. Short hairs, jeans, boots and floggers, laughter, wickedness and intelligence. Fierce eyes and soft lips. Secret notes. Making love. Fucking. Everything in between. Movies, ALL the movies, music, paintings, sculpture, Rodin. Sharktopus, chili cheese Fritos, thin white tank tops, country music. Lyon (been,) Rome (been,) Milan (been,) Stratford upon Avon (been,) Florence (someday.) Apple orchards on summer nights, creeks too cold to drink but you do anyway, swimming, surprises, adventure, blood. Dancing, love, dancing. Reading. Teaching. Learning. Love. T, K. This blog, this author. Delight. Patience. Honor. Honesty. Compassion. Friends.
