brief encounter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An uneasy glance across the room- a second glance one to soon
she’s looking at me that’s for sure- she’s very smart with much allure
the guys she's with seems to care- his arm around a waist that's bare
she turns him with his back to me- her eyes just say she can be free

An uneasy wriggle in my seat- where and when can we meet
who is she then and what her name- i sure enjoy this flirting game
i reach the bar and get a drink- then ask the barmen who's that in pink
he shrugs his shoulders nonchalantly- i havent a clue who she can be

I’m heading back to my seat- her lovely perfume my nostrils meet
i think he's twigged it I saw him glance- our sly glances spoiling the chance
he then heads her to the door- she gives that look what’s this for
my stomach sinks we've lost our chance- a brief encounter has no romance

Is that your work? because everythink I've read that you've written in here is very good.

Thank you hatter- yes it is my work-although i passed a course with the epen university called 'Start Writing Peotry' i do not read anyone elses poetry-its seems to me there are that many styles of poetry its best to do your own thing-I just sit in the armchair doodling- i do not like 'prose' poetry
which the course was about plus' imbic pentameter'

of course i mean 'iambic pentameter'

Well it's the sort of poetry i like, you should try to get it published.

I wouldn't know how.

Some of your work is very good and I think Hatter is right, you should look into it. Why not create a blog, once you get known the publishers will be coming to you!
