The Pradita Chronicles is hosting a Romance fortnight and issued a challenge to writers to contribute. Hence the following. Don’t forget to hop over to Pradita’s page.
Wait For Me – A Response to a Romance Challenge
Wait for me
Said the smiling be-freckled face.
Wait for me after
They were handed testamurs
Smiling for the photographer and
For the sheer delight
A degree of success
From the lectures and tuts and
Now
Bachelors all!
Wait for me after
Crowds came
Faces, hands, and places on the lawn
But he and
Her
Were
gone.
Wait for me after
He didn’t.
Not then.
But after, yes!
Many times
After
And after that.
After
She was gone.
