YOU

I thought of you again today,
Did you host some small soiree?
I feel you are amongst your friends,
Unless of course my mind transcends.

Occasionally I get like this,
The precincts of my mind dismiss,
Any thoughts that you are down,
And tears beget that puzzled frown.

I think of all the lovely things,
Meeting you and warm feelings,
Northampton town on our first date,
How cool you looked – so sedate.

The library- another day,
How simple was that T.M.A.
When you ask me to assist,
A gesture- I could not resist.

That classy two piece suit you wore,
Not anybodies paramour!
Lovely tussled flaxen hair,
Aloof, remote, and debonair.

My eyes beheld a wondrous sight,
To me you felt exactly right,
This ambience of country life,
Rustical and free of strife.

O well, I’ve got my mind back now,
I don’t think you will mind somehow,
My sincerity--when I say,
I thought of you again today.
