A CHANCE ENCOUNTER

A CHANCE ENCOUNTER

–

Catherine,the courier,

Bringing parts in hurrier…

Had freckled skin

Denim was in.

Delivery pleasant because of her.

–

Security scamper to shipping,

She and her cargo slipping…

Pressing door bell

frequently well,

Opened to the door–no snipping.

–

Asked if my name were Scots,

Fumbled out that it was not…

Took my signature

And as it were,

Found myself seeing spots.

–

A pleasant encounter overall,

I’m glad that in the scamper I did’t fall…

She went her way

Made delivery okay,

With a redhead I was enthralled.

PLEASANTRIES ON THE STAIRS

PLEASANTRIES ON THE STAIRS

A fabulous redhead I saw,

The fan I decided to trawl…

She was very busy

And in such a tizzy,

With no reading time at all!

–

Talking for that minute,

For me had value in it…

She was alive and smiling,

Positively beguiling

And real discussion was in it.

BLESSED BE THE TIE…

BLESSED BE THE TIE…

The redhead walked down the hall:

“Are you wearing your tie at all…”

Last night I’d neglected

Being properly connected,

But tonight that won’t befall.

THAT KAREN IS A BLOGGER!

THAT KAREN IS A BLOGGER!

(Refers to a March 21st, 2014 post…A NEW REDHEAD AT WORK!)

I met the new redhead,

Her interest in poetry’s dead…

But delighted to log her

As a fellow blogger,

And so her business card said!*
