Mrs. Starr was a painter before her body betrayed her. Now her vision hangs on museum walls. When she greets me at the door, she'll pause to feel my face. Long, arthritic fingers linger...trace… forehead, cheekbones, chin. (She leads me to her drawing room.) "Do tell me about your trip," she urges, excitedly. And as I set the scene, she sips her tea, attentively, and strokes a green-eyed cat that's curled up in her lap. "Marcel Proust said that the real voyage of discovery lies not in seeing new landscapes, but in having new eyes," I sum up, story ended. "New eyes!" she marvels...sighs... her teacup suspended sip enroute to lips. |
