The Drive-thru

Many people believe that I wrote this poem in response to an actual experience. This poem was an experiment and is a product of free flowing thoughts without conscious guidance.

Never had I thought
He’d look at me that way
With a gentleness in his eyes,
And a smile.

I had always hoped
The day would come
When he would reach to me
For other reasons than a drink.

I remember the leaps inside me
When his hand brushed against mine
And the fast beating of my heart
Said, “don’t pull away.”

He looked into my eyes
--oh what should I say�"
and for lack of something better
I said, “have a nice day.”

Sounded fully as if a "He said, she said, he said, ...and they did something totally innocent and fun as a pair... and it left you with a smile inside." A good daydream to both have and share.

Yes, a beautiful daydream indeed. I love your comment.

[Chris]

But it was true - a dear and well thought out ...daydream

Haven't we all experienced that giddy feeling in the presence of someone we are crushing terribly on? lol. I remember those days of not being able to gather enough courage to even whisper a "hello." This was a cute poem, I enjoyed it :]
