She sat across from me <br />and crossed her legs <br />looking away from me. <br />I nodded a tiny nod <br />and she <br />looked back at me <br />to see <br />if I was looking still <br />at her <br />as she then uncrossed her legs- <br />her gaze <br />sweeping across me- <br />but not pausing to really look <br />just enough to see if I was looking still <br />at everything she did. <br /> <br />I gave her that satisfaction <br />and smiled. <br />She smiled back <br />flirtation accomplished <br />compliment received <br />. <br />I told her in my mind's eye <br />'you are beautiful <br />and I like looking at you.' <br /> <br />Her head tilted upward slightly <br />message received <br />and her hand plunged into her purse <br />and she rose <br />to walk past me <br />her card <br />floating gently <br />into my outstretched hand <br />on it her website and her name.<br /><br />Lonnie Hicks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/crossing-legs-and-websites/
