Tryst

Sultry San Francisco September
dazed in the heat of a moment,
flown by too quickly this time
when they moved together
was over too soon.
But, she stretches
with a smile
as he
goes.

Sue, this was one of my favorites. You should have placed. So much here that wasn't said that made it all too awesome. And that stretch, so perfect. Well, subjective and all that. Just wanted you to know I was surprised, and also wanted you to know how much I love it! Love, Shar

Those were the days my friend! I wasn't a secret agent but I was under covers a lot. Bet he was smiling too. Vince

Good riddance. I love this piece and how she stretched when he left. Good picture.
