meet you in the usual place
there is always lots and lots of space
come with your ideas oh please do
for where we go from here . . .
I've not a clue
they gathered together
side by side
a bit concerned
this they could not hide
for the clouds where dark
and gathering speed
a decision to be made
quickly in deed . . :)))
