THE LOVE SHE SEEKS



Once upon a specific day
One weary dreary work day
She recalls a tenth of countless hours
Under a shade tree by the flowers
At sidewalk's end and weather did fair
For six hundred seconds she hid there
Far from the world she was content
Peace and quiet and a cigarette
It was on that day she did see
A world far above beyond to her
In hues of blue she was in a trance
Was that moment only by chance?
Forenoon clouds suggested angels in white
In a silent whisper they took to flight
Leaving her behind but not so bleak
They've gone to find the love she seeks
