A man meets a woman. And the man says “Hi my name is…” and he thinks
“I like the color of her hair and the way the sun plays in it and makes it
looks like gold.
And the woman replies “Hi my name is… and she thinks, I like the
shape of his mouth when he smiles.
And he says “nice to meet you…” and he thinks how beautiful are
her eyes and how the color keeps changing in them turning them from blue to
grey, like the ocean on a stormy day.
And the woman says “nice to meet you too…” and thinks his hair is
so long, I like it like that.
And she extends her hand and he takes it in his. Her hand feels so
small and smooth and he feels like holding it for a very long time. And she holds
his hand, she is not even aware that she took it, and thinks, “It feels so
strong and safe”.
So little is being said, so
much is already known.
Again, I feel sorry that I (and my wife when I read your pieces aloud to her) am your only audience. A piece as sweet, true, and witty as this deserves more.
ReplyDeleteThanks (to your wife too)
