A chance
glance
Held me for
long
Didn’t
understand why
A girl and
her grandpa
Played on
the swings.
Like no age
existed
Like no
difference there was.
The garden,
a mere background.
Maybe they
were just strangers,
But that ain’t
the point.
They revelled.
Unbound by
promises,
Yet considerate.
Unaware of
time
Clapping
Clasping
Coddling.
In the
moment
Of the
moment.
Enchanted by
laughter
Blended with
nature.
“Sweet!”
I whispered.
That chance
glance
It held me
for long
Now I
understand why.
