Harry Horsman Poet Tetractys

Silent Thoughts Attract

A deluge of love draws out a wry smile
As she walks by
In a world
Of her
Own,
Yet
Takes in
The moment
Of his embrace
Without contact just a wink from his eye
Cheeky bugger she thinks but oh so nice
Turning her head
As she stops
To say
Hi,
He’s
Gob smacked
Her perfume
Drifts on the wind
They move in and touch director says cut.

Brandy Nicole February 13, 2021 at 9:05 PM "Without contact just a wink from his eye" Sometimes, that is all it takes. Physical contact isn't always necessary, to create a special moment between two hearts. This is beautiful and tender, all at the same time. :) Brandy

Anil Deo February 10, 2021 at 2:16 AM naughty director! But what a marvelous concrete poem. shalom shalom Sir Harry ("cheeky bugger" would be lost outside the "Commonwealth" & I love hearing these idoms)

Tom Cunningham February 9, 2021 at 7:18 AM Id have been inclined to make a few mistakes so they'd have to do a few takes. Tom

Vijay Pandit February 9, 2021 at 6:34 AM Beautifully done, Harry! Attraction from start to finish.

Kim Rodrigues February 9, 2021 at 6:22 AM Brilliant! Gobsmacked, perfume drifts on the wind, “cut” - I adore it and the shape too!

Sara Kendrick February 9, 2021 at 5:08 AM Ahhh!! What a scene you described. If for a contest reads like a great contender. Sara

Rama Balasubramanian February 9, 2021 at 2:31 AM Great imagery. Seemed so real until I read the last line and then it struck to me such things happen only in movies. Great write and now I am inspired to write a story in Tetractys. Thanks for the inspiration and for uplifting comments on my poem. Take care Rama

Victor Buhagiar February 9, 2021 at 1:19 AM That would have made a magnificent film, Harry. ~~

Eve Roper February 8, 2021 at 7:31 PM Great opening act, Harry. I don't know why , but this reminded me of Gone with the Wind. Great tetractys. Hugs Eve
