Opa Johan’s Special Birthday Present
Just guess, what’s so nice, so special when we were
watching the musical play.
... ?
... ?
It’s not the play, I didn’t care for the play but that’s
you sitting beside me, eating together unnoticed,
- there were no spectators behind us, beside us – eating your biscuits,
silently in the dark but unfortunately, I forgot to steal me a kiss. Ha. Ha.
This was my special birthday present, more than a picnic,
more than young lovers dining in a five star restaurant, you little fool?
That was what Opa Johan told his wife.
Did you know what ‘opa’ means? ‘Granddad’, but he could be
a ‘grand-granddad’ by now. They were as young as ever, sitting, eating together
just some biscuits secretly, - what a joy it was to have no one other to share
- in a dark corner of the theatre? That was like heaven.
