I was so annoyed
Temporary replacement
Fixed with this date
So I sighed out loud
We would now have a foursome
On this Friday night
We were introduced
Dark, wary and aloof
Tiniest of smiles
She drank G and T
Conversation was a bit hard
She had pretty hands
We talked about work
Said she could play the guitar
I became less tense
I touched her fingers
When I told her what I did
She started to smile
Shall we do something
Just by ourselves? I said
As we were dancing
She nodded grinning
And was so pleased that I asked
This girl's a keeper
I saw Jim later
Of course he asked how it went
"Okay on the whole"

Blind date? Never admit it was a good idea.
ReplyDeleteSometimes our friends have a sixth sense who we'll like.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what he does...and if it was better than okay on the whole or empty..a mysterious and curious poem - which of course we love!
ReplyDeleteI think he didn't want to enthuse too much or else that may have been a disappointment if it came to nothing as he was on the rebound.
DeleteA master of understatement methinks!

okay on the whole what a bland response but typical of someone try hard to keep expectations down.
ReplyDeleteSounds right to me!
ReplyDeleteGreat expectations have a way of making it happen the way one desired! This worked beautifully oldegg, reminiscent of the good old days of fun and games!
