The Singer and I

The singer and I. 

I met the famous singer after her concert, we hit it off
as they say, drank red wine and had a jolly time.
Next day I made her breakfast, but before she could 
eat her manager came and took her away.

It was a peculiar morning, the air was still and full of
heat, like suffocating in Finnish sauna, I tried to walk 
into the stand up fridge, but the door wouldn’t shut
and I got strawberry jam all over me. 

Spent the forenoon watering my flowers and myself
thinking of the singer. I only saw her again once when
she was interviewed on TV, but for some reason she 
didn’t mention my name.
