Sometimes you meet a stranger in a crowd, our eyes meet, and you feel strangely drawn to him, glances are exchanged, inexplicable vibes flow between you...and you are left feeling strangely elated...Yet you are hesitant to approach...


Much is the Charm of that Unsaid...

(Strangers in the night, exchanging glances!
Strangers in the night, what are the chances?
Frank Sinatra)

Much is the charm of that unsaid,
Much is the charm of mystery unraveled,
Much is the charm of unexpressed feelings,
Much is the charm of hidden meaning...

In a crowd of a hundred or about,
How is one singled out?
Unspoken vibes are shared,
Ether flows between two-Weird!
A glance exchanged, a smile withdrawn,
A feeling of elation dawns
Upon the souls, that lingers on
Long after they've parted and gone...

What is it that strikes a cord?
Warms the hearts of their own accord...

Something like that happened to me!
Do you feel the same as me?

I am savouring the moment's charm
The feelings stirred are unresolved
Should I pronounce them, should I spell?
I am afraid to break the spell!

Sometimes you feel a connection you can't explain--an anchient memory, or deju vu?

More thoughtful questions that can never be answered - the mysteries of life and love!

Wonderful! Especially:

"In a crowd of a hundred or about,
How is one singled out?"

Tis a wonder...

Ah, I love that feeling.

Always happens to me and this guy who rides my schoolbus in the mornings. I've always wanted to say hello to him, but somehow I don't quite want to break the magic of the feeling I get when we happen to glance over at one another...

Excellent putting-into-words of the sensation.

What is that feeling when two eyes meet one another for the first time , why does your heart stop beating as if climbing up long steps , and what is that moment in time when two hearts beat like one , it's only footsteps away from a wonderful phenomenon called LOVE .... Well done Zoya .... that's all I have to say ! .... Glen ( GB )
