Fleeting memories linger, of a special spring day
Cold winds had eased, summer was on its way
Did thoughts of sunshine, caused sudden smile
To see again, I'd eagerly drive many miles.

Was he watching-waiting, or just imagination
Did his eyes soften, caused by anticipation
That never before stirred, a beating heart
Walking towards you, stopped inches apart

Had a smile crossed your shocked face
into your stride he fell, matching pace
'You look lovely today, I had to say.
Before you passed by, hurried away.'

His voice so gentle, I was unable to reply
Looked into his brown eyes, instead sighed.
He was so dark-handsome, so very tall
Invisible threads between us, seemed to pull

His workmate appeared, came our way
Magical moments broken, that first day
But over the weeks, he seemed to wait
I'd park my car, then the silence break

Was we an odd couple, but never saw
Odd looks received, as he opened the door...
Of my parked car, close to where he'd stood
It seemed so natural, to question never would

Then came the day, he was not to be seen
Summer had ended, and what had once been
Was filed to memory, of times shared
Would I ever know, if like me he once cared.
