Cocktails in the sun The swirling mists of time Confuse the colour of your eyes And in the fountain square The water dances to your sighs Red lips your cocktail sips Beads down your valley you perspire As shaded from the sun Your mind considers your desire And shadows lengthen then So near but far the music plays The clock the hours to chime And were those really better days An empty chair I see Please come, sit here, with me |

The ending made the poem. ~*~ If they give you lined paper, write sideways. ~*~ |
