vibes coming from your persona
enticing me 'ere you be where I can see
your image sheer velveteen
hips which whisper as you walk
a kind of rhythm akin to seventh heaven
ecstasy is your eyes catching me looking
eyes with a quiet hush appraising your admirer
you pass me by with a soulful saunter
pausing slightly in your stride
mouths to me a silent, smiling, thank you
and continue on your way

Ahhh yes, the greatest feeling knowing that someone thinks you are beautiful. You caught the feeling well.

I wasn't sure I pulled off the feeling the woman had as she noticed her admirer staring, until you said I did, Marilyn, thank you.

Yeah, it is something Becall would do alright, jo, but my thinking was a bit more low key. Just an ordinary housewife, if she knows she's "got it," can pull this off. Thanks for the comments.
