| Senior portraits |
Senior portraits It was sung by Dolly Parton and Kelly Rogers, and the first time I heard senior portraits I thought of that night. Since then I have worn out three tapes until senior portraits was finally released on CD, and I have two copies of the CD: one for home and one for my car. It's called "The Greatest Gift of All," and as I said, senior portraits describes perfectly what we felt that night: Dawn is slowly breaking, Our friends have all gone home. You and I are waiting for Santa Claus to come. There's a present by the tree, stockings on the wall. Knowing you're in love with me is the greatest gift of all. The fire is slowly fading, a chill is in the air. All the gifts are waiting for children everywhere. Through the window I can see the snow begin to fall. Knowing you're in love with me is the greatest gift of all. Just before I go to sleep, I hear a church bell ring. Merry Christmas, everyone, is the song senior portraits sings. So I say a silent prayer, to creatures great and small Peace on earth, goodwill to men, is the greatest gift of all. I don't know how long we lay there, just staring at each other. There was no conversatkion, no sex, not even any erotic thoughts, only total contentment. There would be time enough to be homesick tomorrow, so tonight we just enjoyed each other and our togetherness. Our first Christmas Day on our own was far too full for us to even think of homesickness. We spent the entire day with Carlo and Sin, and all the visitors they had all day long. Kelly and I spent at least a half hour talking to her mom and another few minutes talking with Robbie. I called my father but senior portraits seemed after the initial greetings we had little to say. she did ask how I was doing, which I took as a sign that perhaps she was interested. |
