Best Glance Poems
Life At a GlanceEnamored, I sit, in mystique of space and time
Glancing at intricacies of ebullience sublime
Contemplating mystery of universe all alone
Through echoes of destiny, heard and known,
Where birds roam, prairies bloom, oceans flow,
And lauding its miracles tranquil seasons glow
Enchanting passions of life, intimately I know.
Life at a...

Your Single GlanceYour single glance left me stranded for a whole afternoon
as if never before that moment any woman looked at me
or never in my life before I looked at the full moon
in your emerald green eyes memories of a distant sea.
You never knew so many poems...

At First GlanceAt first glance, I saw forever
It was love at first sight
You were so charming and clever
My life long endeavor
While in your arms all was right
At first glance, I saw forever
I would never leave you, never
That all changed that dreadful night
You were...

Our GlanceThis glance we share
With mirrored laugh
It fills my head
And makes me ache
Never to trial
But ever to share
And live unto
This common bond
And I smile...
For you
With you
In you
And you see it
But know our grasp
Is one of distance
No means to touch
Remaining only
In the quotes
Which spiel
And...

At a GlanceOh to be able
just to touch your wondrous smile,
dwell in benign eyes
those yielding meadows of green
that sparkles in sun lit dew.

Love At First Glance "And the birds twitter like whispering violins”Quote by _Constance La France
Love at First Glance
Saw you sitting there one magical night
And instantly my heart took off in flight
Bravely I asked you if you’d care to dance
It was a yes that led to our romance.
The first moment...

With One Last GlanceFifteen years old…I trekked the river-bend, dived
Around balmy ledges, held by a curiosity
Nourished in toddler years,
When Father would tenderly utter of lighting
My adolescence anchored on the salty
Yet fragrant curls of a bay’s fathomless wave
Now imbued within: Viewing the...

No Second GlanceOh how sweet thy fragrance is from thy hair
I'm captivated by your every move
In your presence, I cannot help but stare
Your porcelain skin so tenderly smooth
With eyes that shine like diamonds in the night
As they seductively scan through the room
Poised you stood, like an angel...

The GlanceWith a single glance
I imagine a lifetime dance
The scent of you
the things we’ll do
Somehow it rings true
as I walk towards you
Those lips and brown eyes
Cause my spirit to rise
Your voice and face
Fill time and space
Your outline my eyes trace
as I envision your body in lace
True...

One GlanceSpotlights illuminate the market square stage
casting hints of light upon that lily white face
sipping iced coffee at the corner café
Music plays but my heartbeat drowns out the band
wishing for just one glance
just one chance
just one look
deep into those rich deep caramel eyes
Oh,...

Dance, Glance, Maybe a Chance?A single dance,
Can lead to a special glance,
Between two people.
But will they jump at the chance,
To have a true romance?
Or will the wicked past,
Lance everything that could be true?
It is all up to you!
Will you know what to do?...

At First GlanceAt First Glance
There are such women.
Those who do not so much
capture, as captivate.
Entering, they glide slowly,
seamlessly, across the eyes,
overshadowed by the more
stunningly stylish and
demanding divas. Yet,
they are not overlooked.
As the moment fades and
the evening moves, so do
the eyes of those drawn to
beauty. Thus...

Enticing Glance
In a room bubbling exuberance
and a gaiety crowd dancing to beats
we sit across each other ten feet apart,
his whispering pulses become audacious
every second approaching my heart
and I shiver as they unravel my layers,
intimate desires beneath naive smiles.
Flickering lights on his velvet skin,
topaz brown eyes decipher...
