Over the Shock and GALing 6

[Gardener]

(I really wanted to throw it into the tides but I'm just glad it's gone.)

I dropped mine gently into the tides at the exact spot about 30 feet off shore this past August on the anniversary date of, when watching her walk along the sand 18 years ago, I fell madly in love.

Elton John writes about it beautifully in The One. All I had to do was change "and sees his future in the water, a long-lost heart within his grasp," to "and sees his future from the water..."

Sentimental old softy to the very (bitter) end.
(sigh).
