A beautiful poem in just three stanzas. The gist of the poem has been aptly brought out by two fellow readers which I appreciate and like to quote here again: By Cleo Barawid: - 'we love the unattainable, something or someone way beyond our reach. it happens to most of us'.

Adding the 10 and myriad more for the vote and rating. I wanna repeat: What a loveliest and cutest poem. But too saddest, the poetess died a young age 49. May she rest in peace. Amen.

Great use of rhyme and rhythm to show the mystery of love and how it has its impact on life. The seemingly unattainable is often the most sought.

He came, stood on silence, flute sang and praised all but in mute he stood broken down the mirror, broken down everything the window had been ravished by unknown stalker did not come just a word from him and she became mortal accompany through deflowered window!
