Scarfs are inanimate objects and can't move by themselves you Fool!

Thrift-store scarf wherever you have landed be it in Brooklyn or Queens or somewhere in between I will always miss your plaid scratchiness on my neck as you tried hard to keep me warm.

Love, Tsarstepan

@tsarstepan,
Um, I am not sure if I am supposed to be sorry for your loss or happy a snowman probably has a warm neck like rockhead said!

@Arella Mae,
I'll be happy if that's the fate of my dear scarf. Just thinking about my lonely scarf perhaps on the middle of the Greenpoint Ave. Bridge (in the gray zone between Brooklyn and Queens) makes me a little teary eyed.... Crying or Very sad ((sniff))

@tsarstepan,
I have a black and blue and much white soccer scarf, for Juventus. I have to hide it from fbaezer - he's no fan of that team. I'll see if I can find a facsimile online. A friend in italian class gave me two of them from her trip, different. (Looking back, she was a saint).

I now only have one, with no memory of what happened to the first. I suppose I was culling my worldly goods and sending things to the Good
Will.

Do not put yourself through such anguish. I know there is a beautiful, roly poly, snowman who has the biggest smile on his face because he was blessed with such a gift as your scarf!

@Arella Mae,
And with this heavy snow falling most of today, that snowman is preparing for a family of snowchildren with his snowwife. His first born son will get the heirloom scarf. Smile

@tsarstepan,
Amen! A very happy ending, or perhaps a new beginning!
