    it bounced back

    the signals were sent out
    no homing device intact
    waiting for a response
    just one to bounce back

    that was yesterday

    upon a warm october day
    crowded about the festives
    an entrance I had made
    and "crashed" into an interception
    my heart leaped out of place
    the eyes would not disengage
    vulnerability wagged it's tail
    such familiarity in a stranger's face
    the body tried to stand it's ground
    to conceal what was held within
    but the flicker had shown itself
    to reveal that receiving end

    and today

    I am now convinced to the bone
    that which was a mystery before
    I can fall in a "place" only made for two
    and it's not only found in folk lore

    I like this very much. The way you describe how you felt is a way for me and others to see your talent which is very much so a wonderful talent.

    excellent poem, worthy of a ten

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
