Time

She was in a hurry, running late,
When he asked her for the time.
She checked her watch impatiently,
As she waited for the light.
She mutter the minutes,
Then she looked up.
His eyes were green,
But she could not go.
There she stood,
As the crowd pushed by.
He kindly repeated the question.
Do you have some time? he said.
Yes, she said.
