Finally, Reply

She wrote to you,
you sensed the humor.
Friends of yours
now pass the rumor.

She wants to meet
on Friday morn-
just to talk,
not to scorn.

You hope she'll call,
you never know.
It's only Wednesday,
two days to go.

. . .

Anticipation
builds a fright,
cause it's now
Thursday night.

What to wear
and what to say
puzzles you
until Friday.

Twelve o'clock,
you're up late.
You can't sleep-
just hesitate.

Finally sleep,
mere hours.
Wake early,
take a shower.

Now it's time,
your on your way.
Keep your cool-
you'll be o.k.
