Click hereOur eyes meet across a crowded room…
They cling, conveying messages of
Desires and unborn hopes
We walk toward each other and kiss
Right in the middle of the crowd
We fall in love completely, totally
Our wedding is small and elegant
The stuffed mushroom caps are a big hit
Our first baby is beautiful,
Then off to college.
We’ve just sold our house,
And retired to Florida to enjoy the sun
We get so stiff in the cold weather.
You die in my arms, and I know
I’m not far behind you.
I think back on all our happy times,
And our sad times too.
It seems like we just met yesterday.
Then we look away.

My Erotic Taleover 19 years agoIN A SINGLE MOMENT~
awesome and clever
very good poem hotti~
Reltneover 19 years agoAn interesting poem; placing thoughts of an entire life within a glance between strangers, or it could be real and the entirety of life is but a moment's glance. This poem has a nice double layer possibility of meaning.
Some of the central part's expressions are unexpected and good (particularly the mushroom caps), but some of the 'thoughts' are written in fairly trite phrases. I think this poem could be made more enticing if you rewrote the more common 'thoughts' using fresher words.
Keep writing!
