LOVERS ON A PARKBENCH [COMPANY]
Umedalen Skulptur | Umeå | 1998
 
"Two lovers sat on a park bench, with their bodies touching each other,
holding hands in the moonlight.There was silence between them.
So profound was their love for each other, they needed no words to
express it. And so they sat in silence on a park bench, with their bodies
ouching, holding hands in the moonlight.

Finally she spoke.
"Do you love me, John?" she asked.
"You know I love you, darling," he replied.
"I love you more then tounge can tell. You are the light of my life,
my sun, moon and stars. You are my everything. Without you,
I have no reason for being."
Again there was silence, as two lovers sat on a park bench.
Their bodies touching, holding hands in the moonlight.

Once more she spoke.
"How much do you love me, John?" she asked.
He answered: "How much do I love you? Count the stars in the sky.
Measure the waters of the oceans with a teaspoon. Number the grains
of sand on the seashore. Impossible, you say."
