Chance Meeting

          A Chance Meeting

As in a dream, I walked the street

not knowing the girl that I would meet.

So engrossed in my I-Pod was I,

not noticing as she passed me by.

A hint of a breeze lifted her skirt,

a tiny squeal brought me to full alert.

Her hands were holding a billow of yellow,  

revealing legs that could charm a fellow.

Embarrassed and red-faced as can be,

still, she smiled and she smiled at me.

There's nothing to be ashamed of I insisted,

her beauty, charms I couldn't have resisted.

We stood and chatted how I almost missed,

the chance to meet her, and then we kissed.

This is such a cute little poem/story!! I get so engrossed in my electronics, too, so there's probably a whole bunch of things in the world that I've missed. I love this poem!! 100/100

There's something about flyaway skirts in the wind that always hijacks my attention. I stand struck, literally. :)

I'm glad it struck your fancy.
Take care - Dave

A wonderful poem shared Dave. The cell phone world are missing the pretty things. I am old and I enjoy to girl watch still. A happy ending to the amazing poem my friend.

Delightful Dave and this scenario with the skirt lifted in the wind reminds me of that icon the late Marilyn Monroe. That image of her is stuck on many a mind. lovely little write which flows and rhymes nicely. All good wishes to you across the pond. Keep well and safe.

Oh yes! I forgot all about Marilyn. How could I though, like every red-blooded boy I was in love with her, at the time.
I hope and continue to pray for you to keep well - Dave

Thank you Dave. Keep you and yours safe too.
