A Chance Meeting Poem by Bill Mitton

A Chance Meeting



He sat and cocked his head
so that his eyes seemed almost
vertical.
Unfortunately
he spoke no English
and I spoke no Blackbird.

This poem is one of those which is 'exactly right, ' I think. There is an aptness, a sweetness about it that I love.
