June First

I moved again. But I thought it was just yesterday that I pulled myself off the congestion of metropolitan. However it has been another year, another year without too much commonality. I can still smell the sea from the English Chanel, mixed with sultry summer air. I know I will not have another chance going back, well at least not physically. Today I tutored a student who is going to study in London soon. I congratulated her on the progress she has made in writing. Oh London, I have some extraordinary memories there---1996, 2005, 2007. I wouldn’t call it a familiar city because she always wears a silky veil to me… It was the end of May I left London five years ago. Now it’s June and I feel quite at ease back in my hometown.
