@maddison hello maddison... I fell asleep while trying to reply, " logged in still" . thats both embarrassing, and showing my age. Noooo , thats not it, You tucking me in, sleep never tasted so good.
Yes , i thought Melbourne because, ...... direct, a four seasons in one day disposition, solar powered energy spikes and troughs, ..... the residual energy of a youth spent taking in the live reverberations of Melbourne's beating heart.
Pale skin , hiding a mystic and goth girl.
I give up..... I just got a vibe...... Now don't kick the chair out from under me..
Chasing visions down dead end alleys. well some days , its all I've got. You where saying about having a strange day. I believe it.
Two different people took a guess at my hight, and origins on the same day.
Both very close. No not from QLD. , but i can see it from the back of my place.
every thing is connected, whish i new by what. and don't say the matrix..
But over to you now.. ... I really hope you are still surfing the crest... How was your day my friend.
Did the mermaids sing their carols , or was the ocean reluctant to share its secrets today, and , what of tomorrow. The best we can do is cast our net each day, and what ever we get , we share.. Tucking you in Maddison. Sea shells whispering, sea horse , secrets. Sleep. .. sleeep... sleeep.... tonys moonbase one

Hi @tonys how was your day? I managed a small amount of tidying. Enough to make a change.
Yesterday, a neighbour was playing a banjo - it was still & quiet, all I could hear was the funny melodic notes of the banjo.
Mystical yes, likely - maybe too old to be a goth? I did go thru a black lipstick phase in my teens. I'm more alternative than goth - and you know I love Soleil.
I hope you don't think I would ever kick the chair out from under you... Would I? No, I hope I would never. Hugs are way more fun.
Oh, I think they are good gifts that you bought! Nice work.
I had to Google your height..I don't know feet & inches (is this a hint about your age....) At first I thought I had put in the wrong numbers. You are like 195 cms tall. So, so tall...so tall.
I'm about 156 or 5'1.
Not super short, petite😊 is the polite term. Good I have a giant as a mate now.
Sending vibes from Melbourne, Earth all the way up to Moonbase1+a cute smile because it's 🌲

@maddison Hello madisson. how are you my colourful , multi faceted friend. Dare i say, you sound good. My day was , well just another day. I passed through unscathed, so I'll up that to a good.
Bit of cleaning eh.. enough tidying to make a change.... I love it.. Its definatley you.
Cleaning for me, Well the book keeper said she found a box of socks in my chest freezer today. . . . I couldn't , i wouldn't i never.. ..... Redirect.... So Tell me more about the neighbour. Banjo, well thats got to be a good thing, thats a door i would knock on .. one day.
I figured you for small, but one of the cool kids that sat up the back in class and the bus.. the ones i was too scared to talk to. Small , i bet your heart is bigger than mine mate..!
Me .. I always looked like the guy someone sends to scare the other guy.
Just have to wear the threads life hands us , don't we.. I'm glad you liked what i bought for my crew.. I had lucky year dodging the floods and frosts. Oh , i forgot to say northern rivers district. The other side of mount warning is an entirely different thinking.
Too much starch in their shirts for me. Mind you i did live in Cairns for a bit and loved it there
back to the farm soon and i will miss the city, and the phone reception !
Thankyou for the lovely smile and the warm intent that sent it.
Tale of two cities hey. can you hear my train....? sweet dreams Maddison

Aw, @wordman you're too kind. Hanami means 'cherry blossom viewing' in Japanese! I love Japan and all things re their culture and philosopy. Plus, I have a very dear Japanese friend and my son is currently living there. So there you go. Have an amazing day!

@hanami Hello Hanami. Thanks for the info about your name. I have a fascination for foreign names as I know in many cultures names have a meaning. You chose your name well.

Hey @tonys
Thankyou. For the lovely long message..I might say you talk too much now. No. Long messages are good. I like reading about what is going on for you. One day I might need to buy myself a farmer's dictionary - it could make the translation easier - I think I understand most parts...
Colourful & multi-faceted.. Very nice intro. What did I do to deserve this admiration? I graciously accept your compliments. They help put the sparkle back in my eyes.
Maybe my letters help you too?
Well thanks for sharing that you are not in Qld! My geography is not good. Google helped me.
It's been a bit of a crappy day. The tone of this letter is nothing against you - I wish I could be more spritely & send you magical sunbeams. I think I'm ok? A day or so & maybe I will find myself... This place.. It's not me.
I was scared of the kids at the back too! They were really frightening! On the odd occasion I was back there - it was only because there was one nice person amongst them that I liked, or directions given to me. It was really not my scene. I kind of flitted between social rankings. Perhaps I had one or two people I felt were worth my time from each of the stereotypical hierarchies. That didn't really work in my favour!
Please don't ever feel scared to talk to me - I don't think you do. I will try to be softer & gentle... Well, I will try to be mindful that perhaps I could be.
🤞🤞
My next letter will be the best yet. Sending ❤️ 2 mb one.

Verbose , Is that the right word? How are you @maddison , silly question. your in no mans land.. .... a busker with broken strings ,.... and a butterfly with two left wings.
What do you do with that hey.. Mate ,
I love your letters. If you washed and ironed them they just wouldnt be real. ... They wouldnt be you, ... my loyal friend...
They are like the last rays of sunset through my old lace curtains, dancing light on my winter wall..
I get the social hierarchy thing. weather its the farm animals or the bustling street, I always seem to be at the bottom, ...... Just the way i like it. My nose up close and personal with the shadows. Neighbours. Well your vibe sensor is better tuned than mine.
Do we leave a place .........or are we just inexorably just pulled to the next.
Your letters always make me smile .... what could i right to turn your day around.
Im never scared to share with you Madisson.... You made that possible...
I used to wonder , do people lie because they are not rewarded when they share tough truths. One good thing about the spectrum hey mate. In the head .....out the mouth.... No need for special effort @maddison just laying it on me , connecting .
Thats effort enough... Your friend tonys moon base one.
