Come Sit Next To Me

by Kristina Woodhill

Look for me
Wandering through long table rows
Shoulders brush, spontaneous eager people
Adorned in posh white garb
Embellished in elegance, head to toe

Dîner en blanc
Dîner en plein air

Carrying, toting, pulling
Carefully packed dinner wares
Tables, bottles of their best aged vino,
Cheese, light-weight fold-out chairs

Bons amis en blanc
Paris, New York, Phily all steaked out with flair
Word stranger or non inconceivable there

Looking for you
Finding our assigned seating row
Edge to edge tables bump and greet
Excitement elevates a vos santés, spirits flow

You promised the most wonderful verse for dessert
While we pour from my most generous bottle of rhyme
