                                       Seeing the glory of it all,
                                       Sitting, and waiting, sitting there,
                                       Floating in the mist of enthrall
                                       Sits the beauty at which I stare,
                                       And with a flutter, the beats stall.

                                       I gasp, for breath, calling the deep
                                       Of my soul to release the air.
                                       For it there and with such sweep,
                                       Into my being now aware,
                                       Such beauty brushed not with a creep.

                                       A solitaire at the table,
                                       And next to her an empty chair.
                                       Now I wonder if I’m able,
                                       If there is the slightest prayer,
                                       Or is the yearning a fable?

                                       The story of her, such a gem,
                                       With golden sparkle in her hair
                                       Upon the reddish-brown, its stem,
                                       From it flashes the flare- such flair;
                                       Taken breathless, I am- I am.

                                       Her lips lift into a bright smile,
                                       A man sits with my solitaire,
                                       And I pray it’s just for awhile;
                                       But in hopelessness I despair,
                                       And sit alone in my trial.
