the instante of a glance

Instant of a Glance


It plays in the glance
Of butterflies wings
to-and-fro seduction.
Oh! Breeze fluttering almost tactile,
in a forget-me-not branch.

A moonlight shawl, full moon
shaking the waters
brightening fleetingly a light instant.

Playful glance
plays of love.
Child venturing in dangers
of one more construction set.

Brilliance... childlike glance.
Magician taking away from top hat
crepe paper pigeons and flowers
chromatic scarves in tenuous thread,
illusion of hauled illusory look
play of seduction.

Oh! Sweet enchantment of presence
that illuminates doors
where someone waits.
And there’s a sun between the lips.
