I cannot recall the moment we met

It may have been in the morning

I may have been near noon

Or perhaps in the afternoon

No, it probably was in the evening.

I do remember our first kiss

In the Grand Hyatt

In DC

In the elevator

After a most charming evening.

She was married I knew

And why her boundaries

That night I chose to invade

I cannot attest.

Her Southern Rearing prevented her from giving me

My proper due

I suspect a part of her had no interest in proper due

But even after all these years

I cannot be sure

Nor do I have a desire

To reflect in a negative way upon her character

Whether moral or spiritual

So I accept without reserve

The blame for tempting her so

I am fortunate she forgave my violation

And allowed me to stay

A friend to her through these years

I have tried to fill the void she left that day

Without success

So I must confess

I have returned to the source

And with her changed status and permission

Earnestly desire a repeat

Of the moment
