The Fantasy Fling

We said good night

Embrace loving and tight

Went separate ways

Neither one knowing what to say

Infatuated gazes explained it all

Mutual romance made the call

Then the next morning

Without any warning

She was not there

Disappeared into thin air

Where did she go?

I do not know

Apparently, this is how it went down

How she skipped my Hallmark setting town

Left our quaint breakfast with a bed

Quietly, nothing said

Panicked, I grabbed sausage, eggs and ham

Felt like I was in a legal jam

Filled with jelly and cream

Realizing, this now was a bad dream

Searched the lake and woods

Thought my companion features were innocent and good

Dusted the dining room and bar

She didn’t even have a car

Arrived by bus

Stepped off I immediately blushed

Seeing beauty, I could not decline

And attitude ever so kind

Smile on the face

Took me to another place

Comforting, honest and true

Never did I express, ‘I love you’

Sitting alone

Next to a twentieth century phone

Which only had a dial tone

Waiting for a ring

And update on our weekend fling

That ended with a puff of smoke

From someone who thought my emotions were a joke
