‘I am as constant as the northern star,’ my husband drawl with a twinkle in his eyes, his dark face breaking into an infectious grin. He held me close and planted a quick kiss on my lips, he’d warned me else I would have used his picture. He is a shy man and very kind. I don’t need anyone to tell me how lucky I am to be with him and see him but I don’t want to talk about my husband rather, I want to talk about you, yes, my readers my friends.
You see guys, I’ve got an imagination as wide as the sea and while I was planning on what to do in the office today (after writing a great article for my editor), a wonderful thought just whipped through my wind, what if I could see all of you at once, in one space, time space. I know it’s impossible, we’re all flung in different parts of the globe but what exactly is our connecting reason, what is our fuse, what binds us together?
I am not going to answer that question because it’s obvious anyway, I’m just going to describe what I imagined everyone is doing now. It’s 3 o’clock in the afternoon and Alastair is punching away on his laptop, his daughter strolled in and gave him his camera.
‘Thanks babe,’ he said, thinking of his next photo shoot.
Christy, (she’s a poet) rushed through the door, it was almost past three, her babies would be waiting anxiously in the class and she hated to be the last mother at her daughter’s class. Rosy, stopped to wipe beads of sweat off her forehead, her thought on her next trip, she couldn’t wait for the visit to Venice with Gary, her millionaire boyfriend. Clanmother strolled towards her favourite bookshop, she’d seen a copy of ‘The Feet Of Darkness,’ (written by yours truly) and has determined to get it. Danny Breslin is on his next adventure to Kathmandu. Seanbidd scratched his head, trying to conjure his next piece of magic prose. Uzoma laughed heartily when he landed a new book contract with Random House.
And, I am in the office, typing this, I’ll have to dash out at quarter to three, pick my son from nursery, dash to his brother’s school, branched at his sister’s and head home. The rest of the day would be a blur of chores and work at the home office.
In all, it has been a great day so far and I wish you peace, whatever your circumstances. I am going to write more on my other friends, it’s quiet a long list, running into thousands!
Love you all!
🙂 🙂
That’s brilliant. Thank you so much for including my daughter and I in that 😀
I’m glad you like it!
🙂 🙂 🙂
I called my daughter in to see it as well 😀 She loved it
Awwwwww! My love to her, she should get a blog too, does she have one?
http://freyaann.wordpress.com/ 🙂 She hasn’t updated it for a while.
I’ll head over there and dash out to pick the kids! She should, I’ll be there always!
🙂
Hopefully she will soon. I want her to do a post about her trip to see Justin bieber
That would be lovely, I wonder why girls love that boy so much!!
No idea. He’s just a teenager who pretends to sing
And he’s making millions… 😦
I believe he’s going to go downhill fast now though after the events of last week
Late….
..Stopping singing (not his fault – but some don’t see it)
…..Taking a swing at a paparazzi and using abusive language
In a way he reminded me of Michael Jackson, the sad part is, there are people around him who might be pushing the poor bloke too hard! He needs to live, not dancing and singing every time. He looks tired. Sometimes, I pity those so called celebs…
I believe you are right. He has had his birthday whilst he was over here and has had parties for him. He left one early and went to sleep.

Great imagination … could be spot on though
Thanks for the reblog and your support!
Cheers. 🙂
You’re welcome 🙂

Oh dear – I’m quite the scandal! 😉
Oh no dear, I see you as a rich woman, adored and loved! You’ll have to tell me all about Gary and your trip to Venice!!
🙂 🙂 🙂
What an excellent and fun post! I loved this! 🙂
Thanks for your kind comment, I’m glad you like it!

Very clever but in a generous kind of way as well! Nice 🙂
This is a sweet post. I think it says a lot about your character. A caring person.
That’s mighty kind of you, I’ll compile a list of friends and write short fictitious stories about them, I hope you don’t mind if I include you, I’ll be apt, I’m at liberty to create another version of you, (the way I see you in my imagination) but it’ll be quirky and fun!
Life is too short to be serious all the time. I’ll glad you visited!!
Much love. 🙂
I don’t mind and I will visit often. I’m a loyal follower. 🙂
That’s great! I’ll alert you, it’s going to be a great adventure!
🙂
This is a fun post with people I know, loved it!
Lovely post. I love my bloggie friends too. 🙂
Love your impromptu writing style. What prompts you to write this way?

Thank you for your comment but like you said it just happens! That’s one of the joys of being a dedicated writer I guess, you muse and you strike gold. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn’t! I appreciate your visit!
Cheers. 🙂

[…] is just a figment of my imagination and an update on my recent post ‘I See You…’ https://seyisandradavid.org/2013/03/12/i-see-you/ It’s all fiction but the part about ‘The Feet Of Darkness’ is true. The […]
What a montage of eclectic locations and people.. At one in the morning, it’s a great time to think, write and make worlds up.
You’re right seanbidd!
Cheers! 🙂
Aw, I’m so grateful you included my name alongside this list of gorgeous people. And yes, I’m looking forward to my new book lol. Your humility and care for others precede you. Remain blessed.
Thank you Uzoma for your kind comment, I’m glad you like it. I can’t wait to actually hold your book in my hands.
Cheers. 🙂
