My Waiting Date
Does anything beat the excitement
Of watching the train station sign
Hoping that this one isn't cancelled
Because of leaves upon the line
I've got a date to rush to
An appointment with a maiden fair
Oh please I beg you train
Don't fill me with despair!
I know she'll be there waiting
Tapping her little feet
Come on bloody train service
Don't make me late for my meet!

Calm down and have a pasty, and buy her one too.
If I went to Cornwall and for a pasty I might be forgiven!
Thank you for posting @meesterboom.
Whatever it takes to bring the poet out in you. Appreciate you bringing us on board. A delightful poem...just the way good Scot should express himself.
One poet is certain to approve. .ie. Burns
All the best to you and yours. Cheers.
NB bleujay is also certain your post regarding a certain someone who shall remain without a name....was of the best timing....no sooner did you seek him out and he was gone...like that...Boom!
@elyaque had a note yesterday about the said departure.
Oh! I didn't see the note, I must look. I did think it the most splendid coincidence!
And thank you for your comment @bleujay, whenever I see one it raises a smile!
@meesterboom wait! you got a date?
is it today? the - you know - ..day?
and you're waiting for the train when you made this?
awesomeness - your brain is freakin' cool!
I hope you make it on time !
have fun ya!
It is this very moment and I am not there!! Wrote it on the platform as I wailed inwardly at being the late one!
Things like this happen only when you're in a hurry.
I was late 40 minutes today for work :D
It happens when you least expect it.
You're absolutely right. If I want in a rush it would have been fine. I hate being late as well!!
