Green Flash at Sunset

For a minute we were soulmates...

You knew me before ever speaking.
I gave you my heart. And you?
You gave me a sense of self, accepted me,
and —dare I say— perhaps even loved me 
                                     ... for a minute

You were my ‘green flash’ at sunset 
bright…rare…there
then gone as quickly,
leaving me holding
your memory.

  1. Wow, I've just experienced such a moment in my life. I'm 45 and never thought I'd find another green flash moment in my life. And then I happened on your poem. Very cool. Ellie in Northern MI
