Love-Romance

The Meeting

Eyes search crowd-seek.

Faces merge glance-pass.

Then a smile-brief peck.

Shy-to-coy, emotions caste.

Awareness- shuffles of feet.

Follows-sudden-intake-breath.

Surrounding air-heavy sweet.

Bridge silence-sudden death.

Passers-aware-focused-eyes.

Blinkered visions-one-to-one.

Hesitation-as silence-buys.

Overcome heat-of burning sun.

Teenage love-stutters to start.

Innocent- dare reach to touch.

Direction look-will they part.

Body language-says so much.

Atmospheric-sensual- air.

Inner passion-gradually build.

Mixed emotions-two compare.

Love’s journey-needs fulfilled.
