“It’s In The Cards Or Is It?’

by David LaPlantz ·

Is love as close as the shuffle of a deck of cards? Or, is there more to love than that? Like the work it takes to grow a love, to nurture love and to maintain love?

“A Sun & Sand, Atlantic City Beach Memory,” Metal Commemorative Card.

by David LaPlantz ·

Two children, two cousins, having a fun sun drenched day at the beach. The white NJ sand and the joys of playing are so elegant/so touching in this photo. A day to remember, a small boy to remember and a shared love to remember.

The judge inquired. “Son, what do you have to say for yourself?”

My response, ” Well, Your Honor, I think my throttle got stuck.
That’s why I rounded that curve at such high speed, honest!”

She responded, “That’s a logical and fine answer.
Your fine is $120.00 and I am allowing your to retain your drivers license, on the condition, I never see you again in my court room. Is that understood?”

My response, “Yes, Your Honor, thank you.”
