You and I could get to know each other very well, and I would still never know your thoughts. At least any of your unspoken thoughts. So, I can judge you by what I see and hear.

A social media friend of mine who shares photographs, by her and other skilled photographers, posted a picture that captured the emerald northern lights. And she called it. Emerald Embrace. The picture, and her title, inspired me to write a rhyme using one of my faves. Alliteration? Absolutely. In this case, I focused on alliteration in only one line and in the title.

It was around this time of year, the summer of 1979 to be more precise, when I bought a little blue Hilux pickup from a Toyota dealership in Houston Texas. I remember the test drive.
