A Brief Encounter
He sneaked his way into the Lecture
Hall like a thief,
His greetings were brief,
Glancing around the room with a friendly
smile, he then rested a long gaze upon
her face,
She felt uneasy and thought he might
be in the wrong place.
A while later, he boldly slipped a note
into her hand, with a one-eyed wink,
Reading it made her cheeks turn rosy
pink,
She dashed to the water cooler and
took a long drink,
Her brain froze, and for a moment
she couldn’t think.
To her surprise.they were paired
together, and now sat staring at
each other; neither spoke, and neither
looked away,
Fate’s fire ignited and was ablaze,
In a world of their own, their eyes
locked in a silent gaze,
It seemed Destiny was at play, ensuring
them that today was their day.
In the hush of that moment,
the hearts of a naive teenager and
the cool-as-ice young stranger
entwined,
And as they parted and joined
the flowing tide,
Embedded in their memories,
the magic of their brief encounter
will forever reside.
