Entranced
She was waiting in the plaza
a breath of fresh air
graceful as could be
I sat there in the distance
couldn’t take my eyes off her
imagining that she might
be waiting for a guy like me
She slowly sipped
her coffee cup
I watched her lips
their gentle touch
And in my head I juggled
dozens of scenarios
where I would sweep
her off her feet
As time went on
I realized I’d missed my chance
and let the angel pass me by
