Dear Reader,

Love has been expressed in our songs and literature in so many ways it is hard not to repeat its meaning in words. In this Novel of Norman and Bonnie, I tried to present a story of love in a way that I hope you the reader will not take my love story too personal.

Author's Reflection

I do not know why I wrote this Novel and maybe it was just to please myself. I have a hard time going over my words without tears for it is a sad story of two people in love who have grown old and one of them is dying.

On Content and Privacy

It is not a children's story with strong sexual scenes that I provide to express a love relationship between a couple that have lived together for over fifty years. Maybe I should have left these scenes out for it is something we usually keep private.

Final Thoughts

I do hope by the time you have finished my story that I have given to you an image of love that in fact is part of all our lives.
