Midnight and six

 

Eddie happened by it was as if he was leaving

he gestured for a final photo to be taken of the three of us.

I made off to get my camera.

 

The front door of the house was open

yet I proceeded to make my entry from an upstairs window.

I found myself balancing precariously on the windows ledge

struggling to climb inside, almost but not quite falling

a camera case strapped across my midriff making entry difficult.

This was a little strange, as it would seem

that I had had the camera with me all the time.

I continued with my quest though my balance

was faltering and thought I may not be able

to manoeuvre my way past this obstruction

but with a struggle managed to tip my way into the bedroom.

 

Walking back to the rendezvous

the grass appeared long and swirling

and for a time I could not find my woman of beauty

and in a moment thought that she may have left with Eddie.

Eventually I came across them; she looked uncomfortable,

not with my arrival more the situation she found her self in.

She was laying on her back on the trodden green

Eddie’s face was adjacent to her panty line

he had either just shagged her or was about to.

 

My beauty and I entered the room

it was full of friendly Australians.

They remarked on the loveliness of the bride

then one asked if I was the groom.

The laughter of the meeting room subsided as

I informed them that I was the best man.

The next time I saw her she was dressed in a towel.

She kissed me sweetly then went to shower off the day.
