There was no breeze and all fell still,
even the rain
We were not here on earth,
there was no time.
There was no death nor birth
It was a moment as it never will
be here again, so full.
As you said yes. And I gave in.
My Zeus. Was I to think you were a bull?
Not really…

Hi Grå Sky, thank you very much 🙂
Before and after… “It was a moment as it never will” – it should be many moments like that. 🙂
Hi Seabell, thank you for your comment!
The ending is a wonderful twist. Nice one, Ina!

Fun! I never bought the idea that those girls didn’t recognize a god when they had one (:
lol No it seems to me she knew alright? 🙂
