Nearing his destination Henry looks up a moment and his eyes
shine back at the stars and anything else that happens to be twinkling up there. Here he is at the door so he reaches into a pocket and produces.. Hang on a minute. Right. Henry, reaches . Into a pocket. And produces....Where Is it? What the blazes has happened to the blasted thing? He Reaches. Into a pocket. And. Produces. Oh look Henry...Yes He reaches, that's it, into a pocket , and produces- Ah there it is! Oh no wait that's just a sweet wrapper.. Come on. Come on!

    Haha! Been into that pocket with the sweet wrappers (grandkids, not mine!), golf tees, Aldi receipts (I’m value-conscious), keys and anything but what I’m looking for...
