The Handsome Boy - Collaboration

He stood across the room from me. A future love? My heart fluttered! “I bet he won’t ask me to dance,” my timid inner self muttered. He approached, surprising me by how his whispered words were uttered. “Care t – t – t- to d – d – d- dance?” the handsome boy then stuttered. Oct. 6, 2020 for Line Gauthier's Max 14 Lines Poem-Inspired Prompt Poetry Contest Words of Line's used: love, fluttered, timid, muttered, whispered, uttered, stuttered.
