A Moment’s Notice

In Poetry on December 2, 2009 at 11:37 am

 In a moment’s notice

I discovered friendship

Though no greetings had yet been exchanged

In a moment’s notice

Closeness came over me

While beholding the eyes of a stranger

With whom I had never been engaged (with)

In a moment’s notice

Desire aroused,

Seizing all self control, reasoning and concentration

In a moment’s notice

I thought of all the things

I might do to steal a fraction of her attention

In a moment’s notice

I became aware of her infectious smile

Graceful and pure as a lily

In a moment’s notice

Something told me to

Ask her what she thought it could be

That makes us spend a lifetime

Looking for the perfect one

When all it takes is a moment

To recognize true beauty-is always beaming in our faces as a summer’s sun

BUT

In a moment’s notice

She disappeared into the crowd

As I stood there full of contemplations and uncertainties

In a moment’s notice

I realized life is a series of beautiful moments

Slowly passing by, one moment at a time in actuality

Yet offering amazement along the way

Daring us to just try it, before it gets away

—In a Moment’s Notice—
