Enchanted... Poem by Nestor David Armas

Enchanted...



The anticipation is there

Heavy thick like a warm blanket

Like humidity, condensation in a window

I'm earnest waiting for her

Anticipating that moment

The block letters will light up

New email has arrived,

And even though

It's only a few words

I know, my mind will

Break them down

Like a kitten with a ball

Of yarn, unravelling

What she said

And didn't say,

Punctuation,

I can hear her voice

Uttering those letters,

So vividly I can see her

For a moment though brief

She is real so real so very real

A hologram couldn't do better,

For a brief spell I am enchanted

And when nothing happens

I am shattered lost waiting

For that stick to be tossed again...
