he spoke to me in that way again today
like he actually had more than two words to say
to his brisk Good Morning Melissa!
my heart promptly melted
when he in turn said not another word more
I wished him car trouble before his hand touched
the door
and for his awful insolence at leaving our lovely
conversation much, much too soon
his impressive chest I could have all too happily
pelted...............
