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.
