A Brief Encounter

A classic movie for many generations
made in '45 after world war 2 ends
brief encounter, a real romantic epic
Alec and Laura found love to blend

These two were happily married
to their own spouses no doubt
but they met waiting on a train
not realizing that their love was about

A brief moment between two people
where it leads one never knows
a glance or a smile so becoming
turns one's heart secretly shows

This was in an age of decency
a far cry from today's cinema
where there's nothing barred at all
love means lust as nothing can stall

Wherever we're placed in our world
providence takes round many a corner
be sure be faithful to your life partner
protect yourself in your marriage armour

( Having watched again recently Brief Encounter the movie, thought of many lessons to learn from the film made in 1945 which is still a classic today.)
