[David E. Gervais]

..I was doing a bit of clean-up of my hard drive and found this old poem I wrote a few years back. It's about an encounter in a bar, so I thought it would fit in here! Comments are welcome!

"The Encounter.."

Late afternoon on a warm day,
into a bar I make my way.
The dim lit room does soothe my eyes,
I sit right down and give a sigh.

I close my eyes and breath in deep,
and feel the tension from me seep.
It's good to finally relax,
after a day that did so tax.

Here I sit and sip my drink,
my thoughts do stir as I think.
I raise my glass up to the light,
and see you cross my line of sight.

I watch as you sit by the bar,
my eyes do scan you from afar.
A short black dress is your atire,
and your beauty sets me afire.

I see you raise your glass to lips,
and take a tiny little sip.
You cross your legs and shift your weight,
a move I sure apreciate.

I scan your legs from foot to thigh,
lick my lips and let out a sigh.
You turn your head yet unaware,
and catch me smiling as I stare.

You smile at me and I do blush,
as passion fills me with a rush.
You take your drink and head my way,
as you approach I watch you sway.

You raise your glass and take a sip,
and ask if I mind if you sit.
I gesture to the empty chair,
and welcome you into my lair.

We sit and chat for a long while,
you captivate me with your smile.
My charm and wit are what I use,
to send you all of the right clues.

Cheers!
