A beautiful young maiden smiled at me;
Our flirtatious eyes met – she’s coy I see.
We uttered love’s cries,
Words spoken with eyes and smiles.
Entranced in the rain;
My bosom welled with love’s pain.
My shipmate stood idle by,
Unaware of our smiles and sighs.
The rain drip-drip – wetting my sleeves.
I stood welded – not wanting to leave.
A feet apart – narrows to inches apart
The window pane – between us dart.
Naught a word passed between lips.
On the pane – imprint of her finger tips
Touch my cheek, coolness turned to flame
Departing with smiles – nay a word is shame.
An eternal minute of bliss –
A farewell without a kiss.
Aloha Oe – time beckon us to sea.
A beautiful young maiden smiled at me.

Sweet and flirtatious, good for the soul. You can't help but read this poem with a knowing smile. I felt like I was there with the writer experiencing his experience. Julie
