Kindly…

        “She glanced”...,   “I smiled”...,  we both paused,  just a half-step as our eyes locked on the other,  the date I had been preparing for all week had begun.

        About a month ago we met,  late night ice cream had us in view,  pajama pants and could she switch.  I had my usual and careful to listen as she ordered,  for another day and that is how a Gent treats his Lady,  that was the goal.

        We exchanged #’s,  “call me”.  It was an hour later and my phone rang and I answered.  We introduced ourselves again and small talk and plans were made for the next morning,  breakfast for two.

        I arrived on time and casual,  “I’m cooking too”,   my thought and I had visions of the same from last night.  A short conversation rekindled a part of life and reinforced a confidence in what it was we once knew but this is a new day and with work,  better is what we receive,  for that is what we have given.

        Two different people,  each identifier was met by the opposite,  but…,  it held us just the same…

        Today proved that simple gestures and manners also have a seat at those meetings that can be life changing.  I am happy to have met the friend I have found in You,  shall we,  I hold the door for the lovely lady…

Kindly…
