Flavors of Freedom [9-part series]

Episode 2: Jazz in the Air

Subtitle: A Melody Between Us

Prelude:

The next time they meet, it feels like picking up where they left off, without missing a beat. Their chemistry is undeniable, but they’re still in the early stages—just two people learning to enjoy each other’s company, one conversation at a time. And always, the music is there—jazz playing softly in the background, a soundtrack to their budding connection.

Poem:

The rhythm of words, the beat of our hearts,

A song without sound, where silence starts.

In the quiet, the music begins,

Two souls entwined, no need for spins.

Letter:

My Dearest,

There was something special about our conversation today. It was easy. Comfortable. I’m beginning to realize that this connection we share isn’t something that needs defining just yet. We’re not rushing. We’re enjoying this journey, savoring each moment, just as we do with our favorite jazz tunes.

Yours,

—Leon Jazzy Coleman
