"As the meadows roll by my window, the cows stroll lazily by the lake that reflects the glistening moon and the luminescent stars. We drive on, my darling and I, in our deep blue beetle bug. I look ahead, and the canopy of trees darkens the road, shadowing every twist and turn that I know it must be hiding. As it envelopes us, I smell a skunk. My darling comments about how horrendous it is, and I quietly smile to myself. I’m lost in a memory from years ago."
