We touched like watercolour fawns
In landscapes painted by Cezanne
Like lovers floating painted by Chegall
But you and I were you-I then
We thought the rush would never end
We thought the sky, the sky would never fall
We lived we loved we laughed we cried
We'll never die, and now I think of you
And I change right into Mr Blue
You say your lover buys you lace
I say he's fine, I like his face
I guess you still think love will conquer all
I know, but it's not what you think
I only hope it stays in sync
I only want, I want to wish you well

my tricolour necklace, from my days in the sultanate of oman, when weekends were spent making the rounds of the gold soukh, a market as big as your regular market, only every stall sells gold by the grams and prices vary according to the price of gold on the stock market. where 14-kt gold jewelry was deemed 'low class' and 18-kt is the regular norm. i've gifted quite a few in those days but rarely bought for myself, as i would only buy when gold was low. all the gold i have from there were given to me as gifts. this one was a birthday gift from my boss' wife.
