Tomorrow we will go to the field of stones. We will take a wheelbarrow and a digging tool apiece. There is a whole crop there, you tell me, stones of such beauty they shrill you. And tomorrow you will show them to me. You have been there already and you found this one that I so admire. How unususal each one is of design ... of shape ... and color ... and some soft and some make you want to look inside. But we have no knife for that. Tonight you have told me you love me. And tomorrow we will visit the field of stones together. |
