Poetry / "In the Moment" (Analysis)

Just light up your eyes

With your candid smile,

And, all my beguile

Slips into the sunsets

Of our weekend at Fire Isle.

Seeing you, snap me

In my toga outfit

I never thought

It would make me feel so alive.

Why did this sailor guy

Have nothing but fantastic smiles?

I really tried to be unaffected.

You lay across the chairs in the gazebo

So enigmatic.

We were all to ourselves

Finding paradise,

All of a sudden.

I relinguished my stoic demeanor

To ask you to play poker.

And, you were my winner!

I could charm you, and

You could me-

Like equals.

If I could pop out the curtain of lost promises,

I would say: this is what I want Jesus!
