“Fairy tale –
a lie, but there- allusion…”
A.S. Pushkin
Her present life kept the traces of old, the ancient
one.
Once rewarded, - brought to highest level of achievement
–
a human life.
From brief meeting you would never say there is
something wrong -smiley face, nimble manners, and witty brain.
Then, little by little, when you become familiar with
the way of life, the house exposes every time a new clue: a statue, a photo, a
fishy food, and finally – a stocking with a paw…
Insisted on a month of vocation by the ocean, one day
she escapes to satisfy her nostalgia…

ReplyDeleteThis escape sounds like a worthy adventure! A stocking with a paw? Hmm! Quite clever too!

ReplyDeleteHowever much we change we can never get rid of our original self and it will surely tap us on the shoulder one day and say "I am still here". Satisfying your nostalgia is good especially if regret is kept under control.
