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. © Harry J Horsman 2021

"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

Id have been inclined to make a few mistakes so they'd have to do a few takes. Tom

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

Great opening act, Harry. I don't know why , but this reminded me of Gone with the Wind. Great tetractys. Hugs Eve
