She Invites Me

She Invites Me

Dreams do come true sometimes
during moments when one least expects,
when the day is cheerful and the air fresh,
causing for a moment of amazement.
A rare beauty enters the scene,
dressed impeccably as if from a movie,
with a tucked-in shirt and pushed-up sleeves
and hand extended for me to shake.
These are the things of my imagination
on my top-ten-wonders-of-fate list;
seemingly less likely than winning the lottery.
She invites me for the greeting of a lifetime
lasting a moment only in the physical world
but remaining longer afterwards in nostalgia.
I have no idea why I am so lucky
but now is not for questioning pleasure.
