Brief Encounter

brief encounter

a man invisible
but for his wit
landed on my world 
lightly it seemed 
until he left

Beautifully subtle. Very very charming. A fave with me. Truth be told, I was a fanatic of Cyrano de Bergerac so that does explain my attraction to your lovely poem. Thank you xx

Well either you make a long story long or you go for short and sweet. He was good man but he died too soon. Thanks.

No he will not be back. He died but we have a date for the other side.
