i love the sound of distant aeroplanes circling in the sky on dry sunny days,
the look on someone's face when you suprise them with a present,
when you cook them something special & make them feel looked after,
i love gliding through the water, feeling weightless & watching other people underwater,
i love warm towels, the sea in winter rough & icy churning up the sand & pebbles,
i love watching musicians at gigs, guitarists, singers, DJ's, violinists, pianists & conductors,
the audience in the palm of their hand,
i love dancing to music that grabs hold of me & makes me want to jump about,
i love fresh cut flowers stylishly entwined & bound into elaborate bouquets,
i love having my hair washed by female hairdressers & head massages,
i love hot showers on cold mornings,
i love the smell of turpentine, creosote, gloss paint & emultion,
fresh cut grass, steamed calico, freshly baked bread & cakes, mulled wine,
the smell of rain after a long hot summer,
tea in a tea pot, roses & starburst lillies, vine tomatoes, roast chicken on a Sunday,
bonfires & barbeques, new trainers, cigars, pipes & cigarettes,
the smell of other peoples hair, the neck & shoulders of someone i really love dearly,
i love to be cuddled when i need it, having a hand run through my hair,
i love kind bright eyes,
i love rasberries & strawberries, blackberries & blueberries,
cream & caster sugar, rasberry ripple ice-cream,
i love lying in the sun day dreaming,
the sound of birds singing cheerily & distant thunderstorms at night time getting closer,
i love the sound of rain when i'm on my own, the girl next doors music,
i love icicles & snowflakes, the crunching sound of snow beneath my feet
& the quietness of the streets that snow brings, cars brought to a standstill,
i love hearing choirs singing in churches from the outside, the smell of wax candles,
i love wandering the back streets of cities, especially Paris, i love walking everywhere,
& running up escalators,
i love castles, i love going out with friends on a whim, on an adventure, on a mission,
i love Whisky Sours with cherries & crushed ice, Kir Royal's, ice cold Lager Tops,
butterflies & insects in country lanes, barns with straw & wild animals,
sheep & cows & geese & wild cats, chickens, horses, dogs & squirrels,
i love the city of london on a Sunday when it's empty,
i love it when the tides out all the way about to turn,
i love forests & woodlands, climbing trees, i love conkers & looking under heavy stones,
i love woodlice & centipedes, ants & beetles,
i love people driving me places, picking me up, i love taking black taxi's & long train journeys,
i love arriving in big industrial cities, i love staying in hotels,
i love country pubs, i love unexpected messages from people i care about,
i love worn denim, old t-shirts & sweat-tops & extra blankets,
i love getting soaked to the skin in the rain,
i love getting my work right & feeling tired having accomplished something,
i love helping someone work out problems, bouncing ideas around & brain storming,
i love watching peoples confidence rise, a smile come back to their face,
i love excited eyes, i love being able to speak without feeling awkward,
i love people taking time to understand me rather than hazarding a guess,
people who ask me questions & ask what i do, how i am & want to venture beneath the surface,
i love people who just don't care what others think of them & who are relaxed & self-assured,
i love it when notches match up on garment patterns & a garment sews smoothly together,
i love smooth legs & curved lower backs,
i love the way the light slowly leaves a room in the evening
& you find yourself sitting in the twilight still writing,
i love a good cigarette, a joint with someone who can laugh & not freak you out,
i like going to places i've never been to, i love remembering my dreams
& slowly forgetting them the more i try,
i love people who tell good jokes & who are sharp & sarcastic,
i love getting things off my chest & having a good bitch,
i love late night TV when i'm tired in bed, i love hot milk,
i love being given a jumper when i'm cold, i love flirting,
i love people who wink at me,
i love giggling uncontrolably & being unable to string a sentence together,
i love comfortable silences, i love seeing people tick behind their expressions,
i love politeness & consideration,
i love it when a big arguement resolves & you make up,
i love gourmet food with intricate flavours in tiny portions, i love burgers & airplane food,
i love jelly sweets when i need energy, i love the first moments when i meet someone i care for,
i love seeing people fall asleep next to me,
i love the idea of having children & being a father,
i love parties in houses rather than clubs, i love seeing people dance,
i love the sound of silence & ringing in my ears when leaving a club or gig,
i love watching the first move happen, and girls who aren't affraid to make it,
i love hugging my dad & having long conversations about life,
i love the smell of gentlemans aftershaves & talc,
i love seeing photo's of people when they were a kid,
i love sleeping & lying in when i shouldn't,
the smell of pillows, reading newspapers, seeing photos after a night out or holiday,
i love full english breakfast,
i love it when the show's over & i can jump around shouting "YEAH!!!!",
i love dot & cross paper,
i love picnics in rowing boats,
and i love seeing people walk into glass doors.
