WHEN DID ACQUAINTANCE
by Paul Curtis When did acquaintance Turn into friendship? When did friendship become affection? When did affection change to love? There were no obvious signs That I can recall No waves crashing on the rocks No rockets in the sky No bells and whistles No brass band playing No symbols crashing But it has happened anyway Was it when I saw you enter the room? Or when I first heard you speak Was it when I heard you laugh? Or when you first spoke to me Was it when I saw you smile? Or when I made you blush Was it when we danced? Or when we first held hands Was it when I stared deeply in to your eyes? And saw into you soul Perhaps it was while we kissed Or when we made love There was no obvious cause It was not any one of the above Yet it was all of them and more I am a fifty something family man with a passion for writing and I draw inspiration from those around me. paul.curtis1956 @ btinternet.com http://www.dreamagic.com/poetry/poetry.html http://www.peculiar-poetry.com/ Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
