ELAINE

 

I remember the first time

That I saw Elaine

Just one look

And I was smitten

But I couldn’t speak to her

I just watched

And admired

She caught me looking

Once or twice

And she smiled

Her smile was nice

But I looked away embarrassed

The last time she suddenly got up

And to my utter dismay

She was coming my way

I thought she would have a go

About me staring

But no she said “hello”

And told me her name

Then for the longest time

She just looked at me

As I stuttered and stammered

Then she kissed me
