As she walks down the subway, Through the hustle and bustle of life, She passes me by Like a Johnny-head-in-the-air Thinking of trivial matters That occupy her day and night. Hey you, my darling, I'm looking at you Am I so insignificant That you don't notice I love you so? As she walks in the meadow, I see her in the wane moonlight Smiling and dreaming Of astral combinations, Of capricious yearnings, And romantic volitions. Soon she approaches the silvery lake Listens in sublimity The faint ripples of the waves As they kiss the lichen-lined shore. As she walks through the lonely gate I see her shiver with cold. A north light breeze rattles the trees Ruffles the dying leaves That hang limp on maple trees. I stand still, mesmerized by her beauty Vow ever to be true As I wait on the porch for her return. As she walks up the winding path She suddenly realizes I'm looking at her, Smiling and hoping she'll finally be mine. True to her feelings she strolls into my arms, Embracing and hugging me, Kissing and sighing and finally she's mine; Definitely all mine.

Thank you for a great tale, Victor! The poem's tension keeps the reader's attention till the finish. Throughout her routine, adoring gazes followed her. She comes into your arms as if guided by intuition, bonding two hearts in eternal love!

She walked unnoticed while a pair of admiring eyes followed her everywhere. At the end as by intuition, she walks into your warm embrace to seal the union of two hearts in love for ever! What a gripping story of - veni, vici , vidi "I came,I saw, I conquered"
