On February 2, 2021, the sun smiled on the land of La Vallee of Jacmel this morning. The birds entertained Mother Nature with their joyful songs. The flowers presented an exquisite painting to the viewers and embalmed the air with a kind of multipot perfume. The river la Cosse, on that day, played a sweet melody and its fish population offered an exceptional dance to the inhabitants of the region. John, a 19-year-old college freshman, mounted on a 5'.9" met Myrthelle, an 18-year-old who had just finished high school. Her smile was bright, like an open sky. Her look was beautiful and sweet like a watermelon. She walks to the rhythm of a jazz playing good Compas (a Haitian dance). She was thin and stood 5'.7".
She said, "Tomorrow, we are going to the carnival." John replied, "I will do anything just to be with you because in your presence, life is promising like a sky full of stars."
It was about 5 pm, and the sun, tired went to bed after a day of hard work. The jazzes played different types of music and made the atmosphere as happy as a toddler meeting his parents after two days of absence. And Myrthelle exclaimed, "How beautiful life is with this atmosphere full of Joyce". Her danse was limpid like crystal. Her steps rhythmed with the music like a shadow follows its image.
John, amazed by Myrthelle's beauty, nervously asked, "Can I meet you at the park tomorrow"? Myrthelle quickly answered, "With pleasure, John". Myrthelle and John left the place, the carnival, after a long moment of fatigue, where they were saturated and exhausted from dancing the Compas.
On Wednesday, February 3, 2021, after the carnival, that day is called "Wednesday the ashes", John and Myrthelle met at the park "La Visite" in Jacmel. This is a place surrounded by trees, like a forest. At the entrance, flowers of all kinds welcome the comers and embalm the air with their variety of perfumes.
Myrthelle wore a robe, blue like a cloudless sky. Her face was naïve, immaculate like a sheet of snow. Her gate under her pear shape was smooth, like a melody.
John, on the other hand, was in jeans, a t-shirt, and sneakers, dressed like a gentleman. He was ready to take action, like telling Myrhelle what is cooking in his heart's boiler.
He begins telling her all the feelings he had in his heart. "You are so beautiful and dazzled, like a star raised in the sky", John said. "You are the guard of heart, the rising sun of my soul. I never fell in love before. If it happens, I wish it were you. My heart is crying in that moment and saying, it wants you for its queen", declares John.
Myrthelle was amazed and speechless by those words piercing her heart. "Every beat of my heart is telling you its love for you". Said John. "I love Myrthelle. Do you love me too"? Asked John. Without hesitation, she responded positively, "Yes, I love you, John".
They both became a perfect couple and were married four years later in Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti.
