A Poem by Heather Hassell
"

a bit out of my element, but figured i'd give it a go.

"

one look and i was smitten

two breaths i forgot to take

three beats my heart must have skipped

four times i had to tell myself not to stare

five times i couldn't keep my eyes away

six feet of human i would never forget

seven daydreams i had of me with you

eight clever ways i wanted to introduce myself

nine different excuses not to

ten steps you took to the door

and that was that.

Very interesting consequences of 'one look' of life.
