Watching you at lake's end,
Stepping barefoot on the rocks,
like a little girl hopping on the rocks,
Speaking of your fondness for diamonds.
What a pleasant day.
I married you a little bit then.
- Donovan Glover, 1997
My friend Donovan wrote this to his future wife, Maria, about 4 months after they began dating.
(Origami is sort of my catchword for a featured blog entry that highlights my original writings - could be an excerpt from one of my plays, a poem, a song, a rant, a rave, a cursing, etc. Origami is the art of folding paper (the word is of Japanese origin). So, within the folds of this particular blog feature you may find something really beautiful, meaningful or poignant.)

(In the spirit of today's holiday, I thought I'd reprint this from my May 2007 trip to New York City.)
Ahh...R & J. Those crazy kids. This is outside the Shakespeare Theater in Central Park. Tragic love or true love? You decide which is right...and which is an illusion. Anyway...yes - love. Good love. Bad love. Love-in's. Unrequited love. Can't love with'em and ya can't love without'em. Can't buy me love (Beatles). Love surrounds me (Dennis Wilson). Love the one you're with (CSNY). Love Gun (KISS). Love is real (Lennon). Love hurts (Nazareth). Love stinks (J. Giles). It breaks your heart and will drive any person mad.
Ain't love grand?
