Romley Station - Alexandria, Egypt

I watched two people sitting side by side In an old Parisian style café Eating croissants, sipping cappuccino and sharing Glimpses of the past, present and future With one another. So completely mesmerized with their deep - space eyes, The thought of me, anyone or anything else Could not have been more than a fleeting speck Of sand across the corridors of their timeless time. Such is the mutual attraction of those in love, No less than the allurement of Planets, stars and galaxies Swirling all around and high above. Ultimately causing me To stop and wonder how Long, this ethereal dance of cosmology and biology Has been in motion. While it’s nothing but a notion concerning coffee shop masquerades, These lovers left me stirring A fresh cup of curiosity Along with my latte’.
