NEXT TIME 1962

A Poem by Terry Collett
"

A GIRL MUSES ON A BOY SHE LIKES TA HIGH SCHOOL IN 1962

"



Going home
after school
Shoshana

thinking of
Naaman and
his book of

butterflies
at lunchtime
on the field

at high school
his nearness
sitting there

with the book
wide open
his finger

pointing out
each colour
and pattern

she wanted
his finger
to touch her

or his lips
to kiss her
but he spoke

of the darn
butterflies
so near him

her body
wanting him
but just looked

at the book
with him of
butterflies

maybe next
time he will
she now sighs.
