Wild Oats
(12-7-98)

Sitting
Sitting on a stone bench
At a stone table
Outside Wild Oats
in Aurora Colorado
the exact spot
where we first kissed

Sitting on the stone bench
I can still feel the energy of it
Of that moment
I was terrified
It had been a long time
I wonder if she was too?

Old feelings
being felt anew
With this wonderful
sexy
great new woman!

I’d been reading
She’d been running
And the kiss is where our lives
overlapped.

From that point on
I knew it was right for me
And have faith that
I am and will be right for
her.
