Blues bar

Smokey blues fills the air
in the dim club light.
Their eyes brush each other
from across the room.
Something awakens
and is brought to life
with the pulsating music.
Again, slower this time,
their eyes sip at each others passion.
It is a hot June night and sweat
beads above her lips as she greets
him with a held out hand,
His calloused but artistic hold hers in return.
Moving in close to speak,
she feels the heat of him.
Now only inches apart their eyes
are locked and drink of each other
with long thirsty gulps.
Her scent fills him and he becomes
drunk on its flavor.
They talk and drink each other
as the saxophone player paints
the night air with emotion.

Arm in arm
they walk towards the exit,
fate holds the door open
and smiles.
