Breath

There was the tap

On the shoulder

The faint breath

Brushing the neck.

"You again!" I said,"Although I did half expect you."

"After yesterday?"

Never fully expected

Only half a surprise,

But there nevertheless

Just a reminder.

"To keep me going?"

"Something like that."

"A drink?"

"I gave up spirits years ago."

" Ok but just keep me in mind."

" Wouldn't have it any other way."
