Introspective journey.
Striving to stay awake.
Drab, dank day of giving,
With supermarket break.
Coke and Sandwich purchase,
Young lady loading car.
I stand, controlled and waiting,
Bag and baggage bar.
Turning from her labour,
She finds me waiting there.
Silently she thanks me;
Smiles, through tangled hair.
Platonic, sensual contact.
A meeting in the rain,
Rekindled choked back memories
Of life’s potential gain.

HI DFH WELCOME TO My Poetic side - A great site. Thanks for sharing your first poem. Nice structure - balanced quatrains and a consistent xaxa xbxb rhyme pattern - rhyme & rhythm ! Easy to read and recite. Loved the content in a trivial day "A smile through tangled hair" can evoke a 100 choked back memories. Thanks BRIAN
