Thank you for reading Julie. Poetry is one of my favourite pastimes

Looking for a lady to share the twilight years with me. If we didn't know the year we were born, how old would we be?

This poem I wrote may give you a clue to see if you are the one....

Solitude

My solitude is my enigma
I love it so much I want to share it
Alone on this beach in the darkest of night
The magical moon casting its light
Shimmering on the ocean beyond the breakers
Welcome to my world, any takers?
The sound the surf with its pounding roar
Salt spray in your face, could you ask for more?
Then what about a sky of midnight blue
And the longing in my heart to share this with you
Stars appointed in heaven like crystal tears
That calls me to love and dissolve all my fears
This moment is timeless and I have all I need
If you are the taker, then follow my lead
I’ll show you what’s needed to live in my dreams
And when you discover life is not what it seems
Come true as you are and walk by my side
The sand that we tread on the ebb of the tide
Will take us for one last mystical ride

G'day Mike, you are correct, the FX was the first Holden in '48. You are a lucky man if you own one, they are worth a small fortune these days. I wish I still had my '52 FJ ute had some good times in that old girl, well it wasn't that old back in 1967. It was fifteen and I was a "P" plater 17 year old. Oh the memories:

Thank you for your comment, I'm pleased you liked it!

I am a man who has had two or three casual relationships since my divorce in 1998, but have been basically solo for the last 18 years. I am looking for a meaningful friendship with a lady who is young at heart, still has a sense of adventure, wouldn't mind occasionally donning some leathers and riding with me aboard my motorcycle, love to live spontaneously, walk the trails of hinterland or the sands of a beach, if this is you, then please drop me a line. I live at the Central Coast of NSW Australia.

I can be described in many ways, but this song does a pretty good job.
