He came in with a whoosh
Beautiful, colorful
Hot and bright
That’s how I remember it. I was sitting there, reading, trying to concentrate on the day’s assignment when he appeared. The library is a quiet restful place, usually; sometimes quite boring if you need to study a subject you’re not interested in. That was the day I met him.
The light of his being was mesmerizing. No one else even seemed to notice. Didn’t they see it? I confess I think he was there only for me. The dreamt for, the wanted, the amazing comet of a man.
