It’s Poetics Tuesday at the dVerse Poets Pub! This week’s prompt is harbinger.
the steamy glances
shooting over the top
of your menu with
Cupid’s arrow precision,
the way you look at me
and sigh like a slow summer waltz
watching my heart melt
like Belgian chocolate in the sun
with that curious half
smile on those (gotta be!) kissable lips.
And finally, my tummy flipping
and rolling with
infatuation-morphing-into-love:
that’s when I knew,
for certain,
a delicious heartbreak
was inevitable.


Tell it like it is
