Lemon Lined Streets

                                                                     I just thought you might
                                                                               like to know,
                                                                     I still find riding through
                                                                                 all of these
                                                                     narrow cobbled streets,
                                                                            each one lined
                                                                      both sides, with lemon
                                                                         trees and at speed
                                                                   on a borrowed red bicycle
                                                                            as exhilarating
                                                                    today as ever I did, when
                                                                             we were both
                                                                 still naïve and young lovers ..

At the risk of copying Lorna, your write took me back to Corfu and that moment, years ago,  of utter delight to pluck an orange free from a roadside tree, thankyou X
