You know those feelings you get when you meet someone new...
Those 2-5 seconds gaze in their eyes...
They say the eyes are the key to the soul...
Introductions are sweet, I had one of those real recent...
I put it in a piece titled... "New Beginnings"
"Its heavy in the air…
As she emerges from the depths of winters soul,
New beginnings “Spring” to life,
I feel her on the hairs of my skin,
Memories come to shore from within
And at that very moment, like a déjà vu,
In my eyes, I’ve come to notice you.
A sweet introduction,
Extension of my hand,
Hoping I catch the sensation of your soul,
Echoes of elegant jazz come forth,
Like a babies first grasp of a mothers fingers,
Our clasp of bodily flesh lingers,
All thoughts escape,
Eyes caught in a sensual gaze into lovely brown eyed stars,
And here I am entranced in euphoria ,
Smiling all for yah,
Feeling like I’m on Mars,
Seems like the world around us is oh so very distant,
You’ve eclipsed all that would distract ,
And this simple handshake has us in a mural,
Of natures painting…abstract.
And all of five seconds is up,
Parting to our separate paths
Until next time…
For I'm praying that your hand
And the echoes of the smooth jazz band…
Stay longer…"
