'Twas just a Glance

 

‘Twas a glance

 

Twas just a glance

Perchance

You looked me straight in the eye

As I went upstairs

You followed me

 

In the corridor there was little place

There was just no space

You suddenly stared into my eyes

Then quickly took a chance

A kiss you did

Then suddenly on my lips did plant

 

I went into shivers

As I quickly came down the stairs

I knew I’d remember

That lovely episode for all times to come

I was to you sold

 

Then ‘twas but

Coz of that glance

The love between us was foretold

As we stepped out into the world

Of romance

Every one by then knew

All about our glance

 

It was a brief love affair

Perchance

Only because

Of that sudden glance

I am really not sure how to read your work, Loved

At times it seems purely romantic, at others wickedly sardonic and at others again brave social commentary. When I get time I intend to read more into your body of work here. Please recommend any of your favourites that I should check out, you are too prolific for me to give them all the serious time and consideration they deserve at the moment. Cheers, Jess, reprehensibly irrepressible

THANKS

You are a genuine person Of my lonely heart A personification All I know is That I compose Right from my heart Spontaneously, Like this one. Pardon me You are absolutely right I am prolific But each moment A poet Can’t be so specific So you may edit This one of mine Hopefully you will make Another composition Ever so fine
