She took out the old album and settled herself on the rest chair,
her husband used to sit on. She adjusted her specs to have a look at those smiling

them tenderly. Memories wheeled once again. Tears strolled down her wrinkled
cheek.
Your maiden F-55 is wonderful and the tender nostalgia is well brought out. Fell sad for the lady.
