Poetry: Dinner

by Jessica A. Tucker

Created on: December 18, 2010

That winter night

so long ago,

If I had only known…

If I had just trusted my gut,

That initial instinct

That first thought.

I would have been right.

It was not just a dinner

But, a date.


Now, looking back

How naive and blind

I was

To miss what was growing

Between the lines

Of that first hello

And

Yesterdays good night.
