In token of affection
She asked a transparent question.
“I can see through you like glass,” he said.
But cuddled her in token of affection.
– James Steerforth
Three words from 3WW – glass, question, token – woven into this shorty.
Steer Forth!
You and I shall steer forth whatever needs to be steered forth.

does it amaze everyone.. or just me .. the lengths we humans will go to to perpetuate the game????
whypaisley: I had not read any of the other posts for the prompt when I wrote this, but did just now. I suppose you’re referring to the “popping the question” entries. Actually, I did not have a particular question in mind. More a specific couple constellation and the ensuing dynamics.
oh that was sorta painful.. as if not real at all on both sides.. but that’s a down side day to love… you know that everyday sorta stuff that is hidden inbetween the momentuous occassions that get us through the rest… brief n beautiful
Woo…Your response could quite easily be the other side of mine!
Powerful!
