“The very essence of romance is uncertainty.”
― Oscar Wilde
Oh! how fleeting it was
how softly it made me blush
left my heart
feeling so sanguine
a feathered touch
that soft subtle feeling
those fleeting glances and
catching them through
the corner of the eyes
I’m trying to hide that feeling
so fervently
where it breaks all the barriers
and gushes out of my heart
ready to conquer the world
and paint this sky red
Oh! my fleeting romance
it came and went
tiptoeing in the corners of my soul
leaving an indelible mark
leaving ripples in my soul
etching your essence
in the deep corners of my self
a soft
too touch
too fleeting
to be felt.

I’m a mother of a smart and energetic seven-year-old. I started expressing myself creatively since the last two years. Since then I have been continuously inspired by events in my life and around me which has helped me in penning my thoughts.
I’m an avid reader, loves to sing, an ardent lover of poetry and sometimes can scribble few lines too. Loves to dance in the rain, have an undying love for nature, can watch the beautiful sunset for hours. Love to kiss and hug my loved ones.
I have worked in the IT field for almost a decade as a manager, worked crazy hours and traveled around the world. In that busy schedule, I never got the time to creatively express my thoughts. Now every time I finish a poem, free verse anything it fills me with so much happiness and excitement and a feeling to have created something of my own. I’m planning to post at least one creation of mine weekly.
Lastly, a million thanks to all who visit, like or follow my tiny bits of creation.
Every time you do that, I get to know one more beautiful person in my life and get the chance to see their creation too.

Really like this. I’m just a newbie to blogging but haven’t written much on the fleeting nature of love and romance… but you are right it can be in the exchanged glance of two passers by… try this about a barista https://questforlove.co.uk/2018/05/11/my-barista-glance/

Oh, Megha!! I really loved this! You were right, same feel as my post. I think yours was more eloquent. Loved your lines – “Oh! my fleeting romance
it came and went
tiptoeing in the corners of my soul
leaving an indelible mark
leaving ripples in my soul
etching your essence

So romantic! Bellissimo, Megha, Bellissimo
