Outlander
We laugh now, as we
piece together the
sweet coincidence that
we arrived in our little
town within days of
each other – and only
a few hundred yards apart.
You: hitch-hiking from the East Coast on a cosmic adventure
Me: escaping sad confines across state, charting a new life and education
From the distance of
Fifty years, it feels like
some sort of magic was afoot.
Perhaps we each touched the
Standing Stones and were transported
to that spot.
In the movie version: the camera
pans out to show the months it took
for us to finally meet. And –
the many more months for us
to recognize that magic place
within our friendship!
What a great encapsulation of Outlander – love your poetic response.
Thank You!
