First Street Lunch Poem by Ray Hansell

As you sat across from me
All I could think of was love
Every time I look at you
That's really all I ever think of

The soft smile on your face
The sparkle in your eyes
This feeling in my heart
I just cannot deny

The easy conversations
We always engage in
I let out a laugh
As your drink runs down your chin

Our hands meet in the middle
As we communicate our love by touch
That's the one thing that is so true
I love you so very much

But soon it's time for us to leave
As you must be on your way
I cannot think of any place else
That I'd rather be today

So, at least for a while
I got to share some time
With a lovely lady
Who I think is so very fine
