PERHAPS TOMORROW

Why I got nothing done today
a sleepy morning at the local café
the table centerpiece a sweet bouquet
and there upon my mind display
I saw a World of sleep and play

They live a life without delay
needs provided by Government pay
but much to their amazed dismay
the Public coffers began to decay
“Here’s your Espresso …make-way!”

I looked up and began to say
to clear the air and find a way
hoping not to sound passé
I was simply blown away
magnificent beauty on display
* * * * *
The Gin we shared ……ah yes, Bombay
bent our minds and made us sway

I’ll never forget that beautiful day
I even remember the lovely bouquet
an early morning at the local café
now a permanent record in my dossier
the beautiful lady I let slip away
I still can hear her voice today
singing those words that she would say
“Keep dreaming my Sailor, now go out and play.”

About Sailor
Yup, it's me! The author of all you read here (except for the comments of course).
Having been asked to write a short article for "About Yourself", I was forced to labor (for a moment-or-two), upon what eloquent words I might use to explain myself. ................................................................................................................
This simple thought process yielded an even simpler solution. You need but read the words I have published here. All the writings (except for the Comments), are copyrighted ©, the moment the "post" is digitized and made available to the world (WWW) by the servers at namecheap, the best Hosting service you'll ever need. http://www.namecheap.com?aff=15525
Please read: "Proprietary Rights". .............................................................................................................
Now, to continue with "About Me".
I am sure you will find a few of my views embedded within my poems, and, if I would quit procrastinating, within the chapters of my future novels. ..............................................................................................................
I would ask you all to subscribe to "RANDOM THOUGHTS"

Another fantastic poem, I count on many more from you. All your poems are simply wonderful.
Saying thanks will not just be sufficient, for the phenomenal clarity in your rhyming.
Lots of great information and inspiration, both of which we all need!
