caught me by surprise

it was sweet It was identified

by its tremor.

Her body alert

she was standing still

watching me.

 

From across the street

I accepted her gaze

her attention to my presence

and I smiled.

She did too.

this is so simple, like the one about the cold river, seems just about a second in time, but you have made it important and memorable. It's lovely

Thank you very much, D. Writing is such a wonderful challenge, and to provide fresh eyes. I try to give life to the simpest of moments. To bring side-lined subjects into the limelight is a goal of mine. Glad you enjoy this poem. R.
