over on that sidewalk side of our busy street
we would just take our time not going anywhere
but more just moving in occasional directions

on some afternoons you spilled your laughter
and it would stain your lipstick with smiles
you would cover your mouth with your hands

but still I heard the sounds of you in there
in those almost fragile glances of your eyes
before you looked down and crossed your arms

trying so hard not to be susceptible again
but you did wear that same dress as before
when you fell in love again that other time

as if you knew I enjoyed you more in costume

You know, you were one of the first poets in PiP that really caught my eye when I read your poetry. So maybe it's partially your fault that I hung around to keep reading.  

Every poem of yours that I have read has touched me in some manner.

Thank you,
Ali-san

Wow and wow!  Sometimes I think I might be afraid to stand next to you, dark stranger.  You would not be looking at me but all the while learn everything there was to know about me in oh..I dunno, maybe a split second!  (lol)

Isn't it true, though?  How we get used to seeing people looking a certain way and when they change, even a slight part of the hair, it is disconcerting and throws us off our balance in life.

Brilliant writing!

Nope.  Slightly demented maybe, but definitely not bored!

You would defy even a cape of invisibility with the laser sharp eyes of your mind. The beauty of this poem lies in the tender attention you reserve the subject of your inspiration.

Untold poetic heights again! I am in awe.

Love,
Margherita
