Hanover Square（追忆似水年华）

Can it really be sixty-two years ago that I first saw you?

It is truly a lifetime， I know. But as I gaze into your eyes now， it seems like only yesterday that I first saw you， in that small café in Hanover Square.

From the moment I saw you smile， as you opened the door for that young mother and her newborn baby. I knew. I knew that I wanted to share the rest of my life with you.

I still think of how foolish I must have looked， as I gazed at you， that first time. I remember watching you intently， as you took off your hat and loosely shook your short dark hair with your fingers. I felt myself being immersed in your every detail， as you placed your hat on the table and cupped your hands around the hot cup of tea， gently blowing the steam away with your pouted lips.

From that moment， everything seemed to make perfect sense . The people in the café and the busy street outside all disappeared into a hazy blur. All I could see was you.

All through my life I have relived that very first day. Many， many times I have sat and thought about that the first day， and how for a few fleeting moments I am there， feeling again what is like to know true love for the very first time. It that I can still have those feelings now after all those years， and I know I will always have them to .

Not even as I shook and trembled uncontrollably in the trenches， did I forget your face. I would sit huddled into the wet mud， terrified， as the hails of bullets and mortars crashed down . I would clutch my rifle tightly to my heart， and think again of that very first day t. I would cry out in fear， as the noise of war beat down . But， as I thought of you and saw you smiling back ， everything would be bee silent， and I would be with you again for a few precious moments， far from the death and destruction. It would not be until I opened my eyes once again， that I would see and hear the carnage of the war .
