Red Truck

My eye catches
every dart of red truck,
though I never seem to snag your brand.
I travel more
the road you travel less,
for a glimpse of the wave of your hand.
Has your hair grown longer?
Your heart been warmed?
Do you think of me now?
You know, I was charmed -
the day you pulled up beside me,
window down at the light
said, "Fancy meeting you here"
and I tore out of site;
hair flying behind me,
wind and music swirled,
I smiled at love
and thanked the world.
Now I can't help looking,
won't give up on luck,
my eye still catches
every dart of red truck.
