Godwink

The student vacillates,
Succumb to study
Or go to the dance?
With a mind flip of the coin
And help from a higher power,
He is on his way.	

Outside the dance
On that clear, cool Spring evening,
His glance settles on the girl, 
An illuminated masterpiece of nature,
With joy, beauty, symmetry, vitality.

His excitement is of a child
on Christmas morning.
Witnessing God’s best,
creates an inner explosion,
a new awareness of life.

The moment is frozen forever.
Will she notice his presence?
In silence, there is hope.
But what if it had been raining?
