Snack

Sitting
Watching
TV snacking
Does pass time
But I seem to be
Gaining weight for
Some strange reason
As being retired I am too
Sedentary already so why
The weight gain when I am
Already a couch potato playing
Solitaire board games reading
History and watching movies
And news on TV once a day
Walking to a nearby park
To read people watch
Then dawdle home.
As I passed a dog
Walking an
Attractive
Young
Woman she
Smiled and said
Good morning though
It was midafternoon so she
Laughed and said Good Evening
Then convulsed in laughter
Bending forward giggling
Straightening up and
Saying this is all so
Surreal at which
Point her dog
Pulled her
Forward
She
Smiled
Waves bye
And I have no
Idea who she is
Other than another
Compound resident in
Search of contact without
Touch or closeness desired.
Each conversation is a snack
More fun in person with a
Touch on the arm or a
Shoulder voices low
Faces close eyes
Near enough
To read the
Label on
Snacks.
