Lucky Me

Post by alongtimegone » Thu Apr 11, 2013 12:07 pm

I’ve always loved everything Italian.
Antipasto, Chianti, Focacia, Pita, Risotto, Cannelloni, Gelato, Prosciutto, Mozzerella,
Salame, Pizza, Cappuccino Sophia Loren, Gina Lollobrigida, Claudia Cardinale,
but most of all ……… pasta

Lucky Me

I was sitting in a café, about a week ago,
not paying much attention. Watching people come and go.
Mick told me that he’d join me when his knock-off whistle blew,
for garlic bread and pasta and perhaps a beer or two.

The bugger never lobbed. He left me sitting there alone.
I’m thinking “OK, time to leave and make my way back home.”
When a lovely lady entered. Said, “You look lonely there.
Perhaps you’ll let me join you?” I said, “Sure! Pull up a chair.”

She said “The pasta here is good. As good as you will find.
I’d love to share a plate with you. That is … if you don’t mind?”
“Sounds good!” I smiled. “I guess there’s no one wanting me at home.”
But secretly perplexed and at a loss, completely thrown,

I thought, “This woman’s planned all this. To meet me here this way.”
I took her hand in mine and said, “Must be my lucky day.”
Then I told her that I loved her and had done all my life.
And glad that all those years ago, she said she’d be my wife.
