François Boucher, 1767, Le courrier secret

Relats conjunts

My beauty, your hair, your beautiful face, your tempting breasts drive me crazy. I lust after you. After you have read these lines, reach behind you, take my hat, hurry to me and let us both go on an expedition to Venus. Yours, Wolfi.

After but a ‘one-night stand’
this morning the snow had already disappeared again.
Instead, a very stormy night lies ahead.
May all the tiles stay on the roof.

First snow

Saturday morning looked like there'd be snow.

 

Sunday morning the first had arrived.
