Lost and found is my eureka! blog, my rediscovery of my short fiction and poetry submissions published in literary magazines and university literary journals some decades ago. Interspersed, occasionally, with more recent, hitherto unpublished pieces.
Not quite a life-misadventure but a bit of misfortune, yet just as well that we cannot foresee the future; that in the spring of youth young men transfixed by the nubile freshness and beguiling beauty of the young woman with the dark, soft eyes and lovely encircling arms may become by chance, a large and ailing patient, bound to a wheelchair, utterly dependent on the inadequate physical strength of her similarly aged, not quite so ailing husband. For both of whom the other still represents beauty, grace and boundless love, absent youth.
