Missing Person Report


He is the type who casually disappears.  I like to think he waved a sad good-bye that no-one saw before his path diverged from mine.  But in any case, it was not too surprizing that when I turned around he was gone.  The real question was - how long ago did he depart?  Thinking back, it has been awhile since I remember a full interaction.  I know I saw glimpses of him last December, so it is a slight relief that the absence has not stretched to years.  Without him, life has a tendency toward mundane routine and it is with difficulty that sparkle moments are recognized. 

Whimsy, if you are reading this, please come back – I miss you!
