that time stood still

Let's not go 'bananas' over it (here)

He stood there thinking
with a twisted smile
Food for your thought!

What could be wandering
In his mind that time stood still
What could he be pondering
That he stood there waiting
In his young mind
Untested with ways of the world
Thinking!

Thinking of one so dear
No, she hurt his feelings
He managed to get out fast
A sheepish smile of a jilted lover
A triumphant smile though

Not too bad!
Luck did not desert him
Won the sympathies of a rich widow
The underlying reason
He managed somehow

What could it be now?
His mind on overtime mode

Myriads of possibilities
A young mind so free
Minding his own business
‘What Me Worry’
No one to care and no one to bother
Time to work on his good fortune

A rich widow
The proverbial rich widow

The right time to work on his dreams!
No, he is not a gold-digger
Rightly perhaps a gold-seeker!

  1. Pondering the difference between gold digger and seeker. Well, it is yellow gold.

  2. "Not a gold digger" but I'll call him a boy toy for the rich lady. Nice reading to find how he fit in here.
