One moment....a moment held in my hands.
The softness of a touch igniting a spark.
Eyes that are seen across a room, inviting.
Radiance of a smile, calling me.

I felt and saw this moment.
I dream of it, I want it to come again.
Does she know that I want this...need this?
Does she care?

Life once ordinary...now for an instant..exhilarating.
The breathtaking beauty of a sensual sight.
The rush of the passions which could have been.
They are not...

Should I return to that place...find that moment?
Is the chance more than just that...a chance?
Can I ever feel that same rush, that feeling?
I want to...I need to...Will she?

Barry~ I'm with Sue on this one.  I think we would all love to relive those first few moments.  The rush...the passion.....the romance.  Good things to think about here.

*~ Wishing you all a magical Christmas ~*

Ah, that moment should be held for eternity. That is what we all wish for isn’t it?

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

the enchantments of meeting through glances
and finding out then what are those chances.

Nicely put, I enjoyed your poem

I believe these moments are never lost ....
if they are true, they always remain in the heart.
Such as your words Barry, moments of time not to be forgot.
Yes, another great peice!
