The Coffee Shop- Part I ? (The Inciting Incident)


A casual encounter
On an ambiguous
Thursday afternoon

It was sometime
Shortly after lunch
As the sandwich wrapper
Still rustled—fresh mustard
Connecting table to thumb,

For a chance of vision
There she flashed,
A brilliant glimpse behind
The paned glass

The waitress returned
But did not bother
As it was obvious
I was not there,
Slowly, stirring the empty mug
It was clear
My thoughts had gone elsewhere.

Tuesday is upon us once again.  And you all know what that means?  Yep, Open Link Night over at D'Verse.  Make sure you stop by for this first OLN of the New Year and read some wonderfully creative poetry and even submit one of your own for others to enjoy.  Cheers.
