la belle époque

for the n category, i picked “nostalgie”
takes moi back to paris sojourn in newlywed glee

édouard et moi soaking in champs-élysées and folies-bergère

oogling at fauchon’s
gastronomique display, from foie gras to éclairs

it was la belle époque of tasting joy while starting together to make ends meet
we used eurail and our feet
discovering with unjaded bon courage, what a feat

we didn’t know flair
only love to snare and share
nothing to lock up, no kid no aging parent, the pantry was simple and bare
less to spare
means living more without a care
more to dare

quotes owens lee pomeroy
nostalgia is like a grammar lesson:
you find the present tense, but the past perfect!
what coy joy
