How I met a wonderful friend on the bus this past week. We exchanged phone numbers and call often now.

We stopped by your house,
Janice got out,
to the back of the bus,
and you got on.
You were jamming and a hopping
and a bee-bopping right along!
You said, "Hello, My name is Manuel."

You called me "Hollywood"
because of my sunglasses!
The name has stuck!

I knew the instant we met,
there was something special
about you.
Call it "Women's intuition!"
You welcomed me with open arms.
No one has EVER made me feel that
comfortable before.
Thank you.

You are such a gentleman!
Bless you, Manuel!
