Prior to Intent

her presence at first sight
an illumination
something I didn’t understand

she stirred imagination

a current ran through my body
and whatever stirred
was beyond comprehension

an angel, perhaps

I watched
as she checked into my life
and disappeared without a word

but she lingered in my mind

a constant stirring

until the next time
when I said hello
