Here in the reality <br />of the public library <br /> <br />she thinks of him <br />& what <br /> <br />...she'd like to do <br /> <br />to him <br />& him <br /> <br />...to her. <br /> <br />But observing <br /> <br />the sullen notice <br />for SILENCE <br /> <br />she steps inside <br />some imaginary library <br /> <br />inside her <br />...mind <br /> <br />where she can(& does) <br />exactly <br /> <br />as she...pleases. <br /> <br />Pleases both <br />him & her! <br /> <br />A firm hand <br />placed upon her <br /> <br />...shoulder: <br /> <br />'Are you alright <br />...madam? ' <br /> <br />(A worried librarian <br />enquiring?) <br /> <br />'Would you like <br />a glass of water? ' <br /> <br />(as tremblingly she tells him) <br /> <br />'Quite... <br />...all right...thank you! ' <br /> <br />'Quite... <br />...alright! ' <br /> <br />she affirms <br /> <br />and with a big grin <br /> <br />gathering up her <br />books & daydreams <br /> <br />walking suggestively <br />out into the Spring <br /> <br />... sunshine.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sunshine-in-her-step/
