    the girl from the park, and she was looking straight at me. I took a deep breath and continued reading. “... noble lovers captured by sentimental glances...” I looked up and she was still listening intently, lips parted slightly. I could feel my heart racing but my voice grew stronger. Suddenly I felt like I had someone to read to. I put the page down and closed my eyes for a moment, picturing myself in the park reading to my lover. “Gentle eyes, caressing words, magnetic attraction. Fondling material so soft, traces of feminine care...” I was really on a roll now. I opened my eyes. She was still there and I looked straight at her as I finished the poem. “Silence, listening, space... there are many ways of knowing the world.” And then I saw her clap and amazingly the rest of the room broke into applause as well. Not exactly wild applause, but it was better than nothing. I didn’t even look at the page for the next poem, but I kept my focus on the girl in the apricot top with the beautiful smile. “Colours float in the summer sky. Dreams fall from clouds. Every breeze whispers her name, my hopes for the future keep me moving forward every single day. Does true love have a use-by-date? Is it getting too late to find my soul mate? Or is she lost to me forever? Would I know it if I saw her eyes? The sound of her voice? The touch of her lips? No more unanswered letters to Juliet.

Excitement at having made it through my first public reading of my own poetry, but I was a little disappointed that the girl with the beautiful smile had left before I could say hello. I ordered myself a glass of wine from the bar, then settled back to listen to the next poet. Suddenly I heard a voice beside me. “Hi, I’m Katie.” I turned and there was the girl in the apricot top. She was smiling straight into my eyes and I felt my heart racing again. “Ohhh..., ummmm, hi,” my mouth had gone dry. “I’m Molly.” “Yes, I know Molly. I heard your reading. Such beautiful words, I just had to come over and say hello.” “Hi,” I said again. “Oh god, I’ve already said that...” She laughed musically. “Do you mind if I sit down?” “Sure, I would love that. I mean... yeah, have a seat.” Katie laughed again and climbed onto a stool. “I just loved your poems. You read so beautifully, although I could see you were a bit nervous, but I really have to admire your courage. I don’t think I could ever do that.” I smiled back at her and felt a flood of warmth ...
