. Yes If I could hold This moment I would do it As well Outside again The air is warming And freeing the world Of snow I will go out Off to work Mingle with people Fill with myriad details The passing hours Pale white shoulders Long dark hair You are beautiful Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful And when the sun sets On this day In the western sky All I will remember Is your one Sideward glance . |

Depending on how its tossed your way, holding onto that 'sideward glance' can be a healing memory. |

"Outside again The air is warming And freeing the world Of snow" ~ Yes! Yes! Yes! "All I will remember Is your one Sideward glance" ~ That must have been one memorable glance! A pleasure to read. EA |

I remember a "particular" sideward glance, years upon years ago ... my heart still mis-steps with the memory. I thank you for refreshing that... wonderful write... j. |

I read this a few days ago and wanted to respond, but literally lacked the words. *S* But when a poem touches me speechless, I can still applaud. *S* |
