Chapter 4 How about that?

Verse 1

Yesterday at work i was accused of being an attractive guy, twice!
The one telling me this was a 70 something year old violinbuilding ex musicteaching lady.
She had come in to the store hoping to find a birthday present for her granddaughter.
It turned out that we didn't have anything on her list. So i sold her a book about The Clash
As she left she said that she was going home to write a poem about all the attractive guys she had seen that day.

Verse 2

I don't know if there is anything to learn from this story except that there are old ladies out there with excellent taste and that compliments can come from all quarters.
Anyway, she seemed like a nice old lady with her head screwed on right and the whole thing made me smile at the time.
Besides, it is not every day that you are the subject of a poem.

Verse 3

Her violins took 24 coats of varnish.
That shows an attention to detail that you don't see often nowadays
