REMEMBERING
It was mid-afternoon when she came through the door. Intent on where she was going, she moved swiftly and purposely The first thing I noticed about her was her well tanned legs, since the shorts she was wearing left them bare. They were shapely and firm, as though she did a great deal of hiking and dancing. Maybe she played a lot of tennis but I really don t think she did. There was a look of soft-ness and pliancy there too Her blouse which had beenanenedone more button, because of the mid-day heat, allowed glimpses of white untanned patches underneath. This guaranteed that, even though I tried to hide it, my eyes would continue to follow her as she moved across the room to the water fountain on the other side. Her black hair, though slightly skewered by the breeze blowing outside, still long hair lay loosely in slow even waves and curled lightly in against the nape of her neck. Those big green eyes, and her lips drawing my attention to the smooth velvet skin of her face, and down her neck and throat. I couldn't decide whether the light blush of her cheeks was burned by the sun, or lightly rouged, but knew this was a beutiful face of an angelic type.Her chin was squared and even, . alips of soft pink and shaped into a pouty little mouth, which added it set them off nicely. Her beauty at that moment was angelic like and I felt as if I was in heaven.

Her cheeks of rose colored heaven, and there were dimples just above the corners of much to the effect. When she saw me sitting there she nodded and smiled, and the long dark lashes above her eyes fluttered coyly. The result of habit I expect, but it drew my attention to her big green eyes sparkling brightly from the realization that she was being noticed and admired. They seemed to, almost but not quite, say thank you as she stared into my eyes and through my soul as if she knew what I felt. I felt a strong urge to take that little chin in my cupped hand and turn her face upward to mine. To allow my fingers to trail along the softness of her cheeks down her neck and under her throat. To bend over and cover her mouth with mine in a long and soft but not too gentle kiss. Allowing my hands to caress her neck, her shoulders and arms. then draw her little flat tummy close to my own. I would have gotten a huge pleasure in taking her in my arms and crushing those firm, pointed breast against my chest, and feeling her heart beat against mine.

After she had quenched her thirst,she would be there if I shall need more quenching forever in giving me the very quenching of thirst her presence seems to quench. She walked passed me and then turned back and stepped closer in my direction and approached me as she stopped and talked for a few minutes, then went back to her friends outside. I continued to watch, as she got into the car with two other girls, and drove away. She never knew the thoughts that had gone through my mind that day, but I will never forget the picture that she made. How pretty she was, and how desirable.How awkward that I knew she was special even before I knewher completely, and this angel would oneday touch my heart and soul and become the wife that I get to share my lifetime in her quenching my every thirst as she seemed to do before I even knew her and knew in fact she would be the wife I chose to love and share all of mer with. I believe in love at first sight, Do you?
