Can love be captured at first glimpse? The warmth of the sun is known to drive one mad. From just one glimpse, Can one not distinguish thee to a horizon of serenity during golden hour? From just one glimpse, Can one’s song soothe; Just as the waves and a nightingale make a choir? From just one glimpse, Can a single waft make one recite the recipe of morning dew? From just one glimpse, Can one be kissed just as the ocean caresses the sky in the middle of June? From just one glimpse, can one not stifle at the sugar from pursed lips at a lemonade stand? From just one glimpse, Can our souls merge the time it takes counting each kernel of sand? Can love be captured at first glimpse? Just as the moon photographs the Earth during a Solar Eclipse.
