Tuesday Night at Emile's: Prelude #1 - in preparation

Frank Prem

his shoes are polished
the socks elegantly patterned
riding high over the ankles
as they should be

 

a clean shirt of pale blue
knotted bow tie with jacket
and the comfortable brown
corduroy trousers

 

his hair is combed straight back
and parted

 

he is ready

    And I bet he smells of soap - what a nice picture.

    • Frank Prem

      Yes, I think he does, sr. He's that type of a fellow, i suspect.

    • Heather T

      Looking forward to this! I do believe I smell him...

        Hope you enjoy it Heather. It's certainly a pleasure to me to revisit the story.
