Close Encounters

Seldom do my thoughts roam so running wild
With such passion that lights my heart on fire
When you strolled by me your sweet smile beguiled
Nothing could stop the heat of my desire

Help me if you believe I cannot hide
There's no chance to escape your lovely eyes
Exists any place for more truth to confide
Without running away with deceit and lies

Life becomes like a universe divides
Step away from its center a distance
What will cause us an event to collide
Is plotting a course of least resistance

So next time you think we don't stand a chance
Remember what turns love into romance

About this poem:
Abstract about how two items in the universe attract and collide despite all the forces that propels them away from each other...kind of like love and physics....maybe....perhaps??? :)

Hi Yankee,

A good analogy in your sonnet. When does attraction turn into "collision" in relationships? cheers

Hi Yankee, I have always admired your sonnets and this one no less..
there is no logic pattern nor a clear explanation in black or white for one to grasp.. Its a feeling...to which some may complicate..I say no physics involved..but then that's me :)
Thanks for sharing your fine sonnet applause wine

Hi, Yankee4you,
What will cause us an event to collide Is plotting a course of least resistance... Or, is it, when things meet resistance, to stay fast and go the distance? Enjoyed thinking about Close Encounters. Thanks for sharing.

wave Hi there Yankee,
There is a lot of real chemistry involved in the science of attraction, in the universe no two bodies are precisely the same so the gravity of one will eventually pull in the other, so from binary to collision I guess and that could always be applied to love as well as the cosmos, very cool thoughts.
Love your poetry
thumbs up purple heart
Yankee4you
Rob...the trouble when things collide is sometimes they don't always...well you know stick together but only smash apart...cool
Yankee4you
Thanks Morgon

LadyM...hmm I must ponder on this some more...you say no physics involved....alas how do feelings exist in a state of their own? conversing
Yankee4you
Hi Joy..... yes...that moment of resistance...for men must not stare too long should they....no wonder its so hard sometimes to feel something very comfortable so close yet once again watch it orbit far away
Yankee4you
LadyB...It is exactly that...something more than reason or senses just sort of draw me towards another...and me so clumsy at times...most of the time....just don't react in time....or well....or whatever it is just ain't happening...hahawine
