Chance Encounter

Who is this beautiful man once before
me, enters to stay?
So dark and alluring his eyes they
speak to me, the color of mink
with seductive glances

He motions me to sit and as I take
his hand the warmth captures me
and he is welcome

We sit on a hill surrounded by flowers
softly he speaks with words so familiar
I am at ease with myself

He feeds me, but not with a basket
made fair, but with Poetry and readings
which are so passionate they fill my
heart and soul

Every part of my being reaches out
with acceptance 
For this time, this place there is only
the two of us

What ever came before vanishes and 
the possibility of what lays ahead
is intoxicating...

Wow, he sounds like me! Thats how I get the ladies...or it was..lol...Now I write to keep from going crazy with thoughts. You worded this beautifully, the images are perfect. You are so gifted. and thank you, you undersood my piece Upon Seeing A Girl perfectly, some ppl think its about my search, no it's about an experiece just like the title suggests. However mine is dream based. Yours sounds more interesting. You should write of it so I can read. Please. Amazing write!
