They met on the southern tip of Venice
she took a small sip of espresso
with her rose, shade lipstick
on the curve of the mouth

His jeans were fit at the heel
brown loafers
a light blue polo tucked in

She put her small cup down
and cheeked a wry smile
as she spotted his slightly, trimmed beard
graze up against the marble counter

His slightly broad shoulders
brushed up just a bit against hers
as he caught the tail end
of her heels slowly walking away
Onto the walking paths that
sat parallel from one another
over the rivers channel

Past the alcoves
curling the streets shape
she brushed her skins light olive tone
as the lampposts flickered
his eyes watching from a distance.
