Gary Smith Poet Lay

We Glanced-Lei

I gave a glance but did she see
Then she glanced, and looked at me

Instantly I sensed attraction
Tho' the look took but a fraction,

For happenstance, it paved the way
Ensuring that we met that day

So here am I, in love with you
I now believe... dreams can come true.
