Song-Smitten

That same soulful song 
you crooned just before
closing time last night,

it lingered long in my head,
soothed my worried mind
and tucked into sleep's
warm feather bed

... my wounded heart.


You know how to make
that old tune sound
refreshingly new.

Songstress, your spell
made me believe happily
that, in this uncaring crowd
you cared and sang

... for only me.
