Not Quite Carrie Underwood

Dear French Boy from the Toronto Airport,
I don't need anything from you.

But when that boy across the bar
leans into that girl just like that,

I think maybe I do.

7/21/12, Air Canada Check-in Line

I ask the friendly boy in front on me where he's heading and he doesn't understand. "Going" is a better word for this young man, who has a great French accent but doesn't know much English. He's from France, and he's heading home now to Leon.

His blue eyes sparkle, and I realize I don't even know where Leon is. Or how to spell it.

Airports are exactly that.

Did you know

The rising sun makes the sky shimmer
If you put some trees in front.
