Hugging Etiquette: The Dos and Don'ts of Showing Affection In the Workplace | HuffPost

A moment in time A feeling sublime A person you barely know Takes on a lovely glow The two of you embrace You sense a state of grace Nothing is withheld The two of you just meld Something you’ve never felt Into each other you melt Thoughts can not relate Is this my soulmate Is this hug too long Could this be wrong I have to let go Will I ever know Did they feel the same Should I feel shame It had to happen sometime Are we the perfect rhyme

I would say that they are perfect for one another and should not let this moment they both felt ,go to waste, they are spontaneous and so very happy and natural . Lovely exquisite poem Bill my friend, help them make this moment come true for ever after! love is in the air, one can feel it just from this one hug. Hugs and blessings Bill my friend, Jennifer.

Amazing Bill how you captured a moment in time...a time when on one hand one has a 'knowing,' a certainty at the soul level. But you nailed the inner dialogue and the conflict of a romantic encounter. Well done, my hubby, hugs, me PS the picture is perfect

WoW! Bill, This is my kind of write through and through. I’m a hopeless romantic at heart. You captured the moment of “ meeting” someone new very well. You got inner dialogue spot on. Good content and rhymes. Nice last line:-) Alexis

What an exquisite notion. So elegantly penned, dear friend. Even though it was merely a fleeting moment in the passage of time. This piece exudes romance and I relished the harmonious flow of its poetic rhythm.

This is romantic and I enjoyed the rhyme even the fact that it was just a moment in time.

Thanks, Karen, for the comment. It was just a moment in time, but it ended up a 40 year adventure in Love. (so far) :-) Have a great weekend! Bill
