The Beginning of a Beautiful Friendship

A subtle-less wink sparks an interest That ignites a smile All the while Thinking hmmm, what if??? Words chosen selectively Spoken respectfully Effectively make their way Back and forth over the air waves. Bringing a smile to my lips A sway to my hips A bit bottom lip Leaning back on my couch I sit As with crossed legs I sip On some Paul Masson with a twist And I say to my smiling self, Yeah, life is good! For hours on end we conversate As the minutes congregate And time cultivates The foundation of our friendship. But how can this be? So suddenly? We know each other barely. And now since the ice has been broken Despite many words having been spoken Let this be the token Of a new found friendship A bond not meant to be broken. There's still so much more to say at Future meetings of Face to face greetings Perhaps a cafe table seating? Hmmm, what if ??? But as time and conversation Nears their end Mutual feelings bring forth Comfort and healing Revealing a light to the clearing The groundwork has been laid. A detection of sadness Was sought in my eyes From a photo of me I will not lie It won't be denied But I've had God and time On my side. This is the beginning of A beautiful friendship That was obviously meant to be.
