So Nice

The last time we met I noticed
the bright red flowers in your hair,
Milk soft skin radiating through 
heaven’s gate I wanted to kiss 
your tender hand.

Knees buckling from the sweet scent 
of your perfume, our bodies locked like
falling birds, We kissed and ran as fast 
as we could like two kittens playing with 
a ball of yarn.

Landing on our feet, we walked along the 
crimson cobblestone streets, At our favorite 
sidewalk café we talked and shared this 
wonderful moment.

We celebrated life with French bread and good 
wine. It was nice to see your lovely smile remain, 
on an empty glass of wine and a bite of bread.
