Brief Encounter

To receive gracious kindness

From the hand of a stranger,

Is like a fragrant kiss in paradise

When hearts yearn with desire.

 

Opportunity allows actions we don’t understand

In brief encounter, love touches the heart,

With this warmth waiting on sublime strand,

Stirring siren within the pulsating beat.

 

The threat of defeat and the heat of passion

May only combine the bonds in retreat,

When we allow doubt to take possession

In those brief moments, we meet.

 

Our world becomes one corporate union,

Link to the carriages of our companion.
