the feminine touch by Rg Gregory
she came on a fine cool morning the last of a course i was attending as we crowded the pavement waiting to be let in – hello she said
put her arms around me – hugged me gave me a welcoming kiss long time she said – she looked familiar but i did not know her
couldn’t make it before she said trouble – now we’re splitting up tomorrow i’ll be homeless – i have a spare room i said
you can stay there for a while great she said tomorrow i’ll move in i’ll have to confirm it with the boys i said their permission will be needed
no worry there - i won’t be in the way she said – i’ll take care of everything they can get on with their lives you can get on with your writing
all the problems of the house i’ll manage another hug an overwhelming smile she wove herself away leaving her presence pressed upon the morning
she hasn’t come of course – although at heart it feels as if she has every day i wait for her appearance believing the dream to be real
