Her road was long and she traveled far
Thus the Oasis beckoned
She sought refreshment, renewal, rejoice
And some rejuvenation
There she stopped by for a spell
To drink and bathe in the replenishing well
Satiating her thirst and hunger
With water and a man much younger
Happenstance or happened by chance
It's really all the same
It was respite for one or both
There shall be no names

I found this brave and determined, but sad, terribly sad!
I was that younger man, many moons ago.
I can promise you, definitely respite for both.

Thanks guys! Wasn't sure about this one...
I was having dinner at an open air cafe on a late Tuesday afternoon. I noticed a LOT of middle aged women dressed to impress on their way to the upscale bar around the corner. The image stuck with me. Then I read
"Sociology of Stress in Office Settings" (#fiction) by Randy Horton. ...voila!

Reminds me of "Touch and Go" by SLF, but from the other point of view. Well written, Lisa.
