She drapes her arms
Over his shoulders
They both wear trainers
& turn around in sync
At the far end
Of the hall of sculptures

Curved Ball
This is more my place than yours
Whoever you are
Wherever you might have been
The seat at my side is empty
The entire bench holds
Not one more body
Out on the floor the living intermingle
Between Woman, Man & Child
In the foreground
Two girls talk of diaries
Laughter; a third girl joins them
Their conversation turns
To places that are amazing
Behind them a Rodin and a Giacometti

Observation Duty
He waves his arms
Steps about
Turns in circles
Points, with a vengeance
His attire
Grey slacks, brown coat
Gives no suggestion
To his energetic gesticulations
Although the red shoulder bag
Seems a tad out of place
Perhaps he is the drop
Awaiting his instructions
I look up
Ar first think him gone, then
I notice that he is on the move
Unfolding a paper notelet

People Watching
Black coffee
On the raised outdoor platform
I would so like a strong cigarette
Yet to gaze on the heavenly passers by
Is both a comfort and a distraction
Except when they too are smoking
