'Morning Gloria!'
We stifled a grin
as she took me in
hand.

Some time since we had
been on terms friendly
enough for such a
grip.

Hand taken away
as if forgetting
what to do with her
or my appendage.

I woke to find the
dreams of older men
still those of teenage
boys.

A lovely, delicate piece. Perhaps it's my sentimentality, but I wanted to change the order of the last stanza to: I woke to find the fond dreams of teenage boys still those of older men.
