Point of No Return

The Point of no Return It all started innocently enough, casual conversation. Just the usual banter at the coffee station. A couple of co-workers teasing each other. He liked her laugh. If he was honest, her yellow blouse with pearl buttons was a special treat. The top button was undone and the fabric draped over her breasts in the most delightful way. Sam thought back to an old Seinfeld episode. Something about breasts being like an eclipse, you shouldn’t stare directly at them. Oops, that ship had sailed. When his gaze returned to her blue eyes, she gave him a knowing look. In that instant he blushed. She touched his arm, smiled and said “Why don’t we go for lunch today? I know a nice place a few blocks from my apartment.” At that moment Sam knew he was at the point of no return. Damn it was good to be a young single guy in New York City. For point of no return contest.

Dear Richard, your poem holds the enchantment of attraction and flirtation. A wonderful and captivating piece. I remember that old episode of Seinfeld lol! I adore how you wove that so deftly into the fabric of your poem. Warmest wishes my poet friend.. ~Susan
