My Forever Muse
Some moments stay with us, occasionally, someone gives them back to us as poetry. A wonderful man wrote these verses for me and kindly gave me permission to share them here. I was touched by the tenderness and desire in his words and by the rare gift of seeing myself through his eyes. Thank you, my dear, for making me your muse.
The Mirror of Aphrodite: Confession of a Devotee of Love
I do not speak of love the way most people do. For many, love is a mood, a fleeting intoxication, a romantic story that begins with longing and ends with compromise. For me, love is the force behind all things. Through beauty, desire and presence, I serve her, opening others to a truth the world has taught them to forget.
Maxim’s, Paris
There is a simple yet infallible recipe for winning the heart of a lady. It’s this: a dinner at Maxim’s!
Dining here had been on my wishlist for years and thanks to one gentleman that dream came true.
Since 1893, Maxim’s has embodied Belle Époque glamour. Beneath its Art Nouveau ceilings, royalty, artists, aristocrats, courtesans and celebrities danced, feasted and celebrated life. Few places capture the spirit of Paris quite like Maxim’s.
