A glimpse, ….

Sunray’s satin sheen on silken locks,

Sashaying girls in sleek summer frocks

A smile, …

A vision splendid in dappled light

Of an angel dressed in purest white

A nod, …

An almost undetectable gesture

beauty enhanced by virginal vesture

A spoken word, …

imperceptible in the distance

her presence, proof of her existence

Another smile, …

Is it directed at me? or

Is her day just filled with glee?

I rise, …

She turns and walks away

O please, I pray that she will stay.

I struggle, …

Hindered from getting near

The way through is not so clear

She turns a corner, …

a glance over her shoulder

I push through as I grow bolder

I arrive.... She has gone…
