He really might be a stranger, or not. It might be a summer dusk or a friendship dusk, the life dusk...

A deep bow to you, Bill.

Interesting. Somehow I think the feeling that the other is a stranger ends there. :)

Nice one, Bill! I suppose this one could apply to me and my wife (only joking).

Enjoyed!

Thanks, all.

A chance encounter and an echo of Basho's

no one walks
this path but me-
autumn evening

one of my favorites.

We are alone.

We are together.

Two truths we have trouble holding in our minds at the same time.

blue sky, glad to meet you. I'm adding a link to your main blog.
