2. "A Cafe' Encounter..."

 

"A Cafe' Encounter..."

 

I could write lustfully...

and you could be enflamed or

smile a sad smile at that poor ol' fool.

 

I could share some thoughts -

and you could listen

and just perhaps -

share some as well...

 

I could sit

...silent...

and just wish

but I do that sometimes already.

 

But I won't cry

not today

not now -

because this table has

two sides

- and you're there.

 

Chris

maybe it's just me but i find this to be a particularly powerful line,but what do i know?

I've read things that made me faint
And I felt so silly, because he knew
Close means you can't hide anything
The eyes give away, the heart
I love coffee, but it doesn't love me
It's spring, and empty chairs make me cry..

Take Care Chris . Hope all your wishes come true..

Say hello to her for me, Chris.

I'ld rather add a third chair and have you join in... I'ld even pour the coffee.

Sometimes an intent is not quite what people "might" imagine and then again someone always does imagine different 'things'.

An offer I can't refuse ... but look out for my wife's relatives, I don't get along with them.

[Chris]

Chuckling here... but of course.

Oh yes! Nice flip of an ending, intelligently given...to know your words is to know a blessing, I know many may say that but I genuinely adore them...I would share a coffee with you anytime and some thoughts...perhaps a few written words too lol xoxo

Coffee at such a table would indeed be out-of-the-ordinary.

[Emily B]

I'm giving you a smile and a wink...and expelling a satisfied sigh...
