Cherry Tart Music
As the music begins, you slowly open the cake box. The scent of cherries fills the air and you close your eyes. Inhaling the fragrance, you unwrap the fork with anticipation. The music swells as the taste of cherries fills your mouth. You sigh in contentment and take another bite. A long forgotten memory makes itself known. A summer romance. An afternoon of cherry tarts and sunshine. And the beautiful aching of your heart when, with the autumn, came the end of your passion. As you savour the last bite, the music ends. With a wistful smile, you put down the fork, wise with the experience of love, loss, and cherry tarts.
