2 o’clock in his pjs

thoughts of her cross his mind

What value is the past,

when sad events present.

~

If for a reason

might she respond

the gathering emotion

ducks in a pond.

~

They would migrate

together he would land

she smiles her elegant state

together, no remand.

~

If friend might know

what hammer of just

would reckon its row

no time to adjust.
