A poet’s capture
Such good fortune bestowed upon me
Absorbing her story in perfect sway
Graciously spoken through her deepened eyes
Subtleties tapping on your soul with an almost contagious delight
So curious to me in the most poetic ways
To watch her spirit bounce with life and flutter in stride
I wished for just a moment I could have gently held it in my hands for her to see
The magic and light she naturally shared with me
The ripples of laughter that she couldn’t keep in
How it made her eyes dance and all around her seemingly spin
I wonder if she knows how brightly the stars shine by her side
Or that the moon and her glow in even pride
A true gift
A poet’s capture, my simple write
A fortunate evening
With a genuine light
