First Met

Movie theater

Parking lot

Cars packed together

Like sardines in a can

Opened the door but

Scratch another...

What else to do?

He left his number

On the windshield

Said he'd pay it back

And five years later

He couldn't have been happier

That he'd been so careless

His wife laughed in the background

As he told the story

Of how he lost six hundred dollars

And found the love of his life.
