You Caught My Fancy

It was on a Sunday night,yes I am sure,for it's all coming back now and vividly too as if it was yesterday. The night was clear with the brightness of the moon like a glowing dot on the blue night sky.I was walking home after having a good time with my friends.I was in a happy mood as I strolled pass on the street. As I looked,something caught my attention. Involuntarily I double checked to know what pricked my consciousness so.Behold, behind the flickering light of a home-made lantern,sat this beauty.I meant to continue my walk,but my legs as if in consonance with the activities of my brain and the control of my mind,took me to her. I greeted her,and with the light dancing in her sparkling eyes she responded.When she spoke,it was with a charming smile and an alluring gap-toothed dentition, coupled with a sonorously infused velvety voice.I was captivated.I intended to spend a few minutes but ended up spending over an hour with her.She has an adorable physique with such a poise.I have been addicted to her ever since. But she has not afforded me the opportunity to express what I feel inside me for her,nor has the situation provided itself.There seem to be many of us seeking her attention.I don't know if this personality I fell for is her true person or a persona.One thing I know is that she caught my fancy.Who am I talking about if not you. Yes,you Baby.You are the Beauty that Caught my Fancy.
