Watching

I only saw a glimpse of you
You did not realize I was there

You looked so luminous
The burning sun beaming on your supple, tan less skin

Walking so gracefully
Your massive feet barely touching the floor beneath you

You delicate figure
You were careful with every move

I wanted to go up to you
But I feared the worst situation would happen

The moment went by so fast
Then you were gone

  1. This is an interesting poem. The glimpse of someone -- the momentary impression and all that goes with it makes the reader want to know more about the situation while also being encouraged to fill in the blanks him or herself.

  2. Another really nicely done poem. Do I detect a budding poet in you???
