A Lifelong Dance

Once upon a time on a rainy afternoon in St. Louis an eloquent violinist, Roark Rickaby, hid from the downpour in a small Italian eatery, finding pleasant company in a lively waitress, Maura Venza. And since then, even sixty years after, whether the sun or the moon shines in the sky, they keep dancing together to the raindrops' rhythm.

I wanted to post it after I finish Wherever The Wind Goes, but changed my mind. I can't keep this to myself, I can't scream alone, just look at this masterpiece ✨😭✨ I kept wondering what life Rocky and Mau would have if they got through 1920s, and here is the answer ❤️‍🔥

Thanks to the amazing artist @erikaerai (also here are the links to her VK blog and her Telegram channel) and to my wonderful husband @lansayn for such an incredible gift on my 30th b-day ✨💖🥹💖✨

The Serenity in You

Notwithstanding all hardships and storms, Rocky and Maura always find solace in each other's arms.

The art by the incomparable @erikaerai (check her VK blog and her Telegram channel, too!), who always catches Rocky's and Mau's warm and tender connection and makes it bloom exceptionally 🤍
