Swinging Hips

alluring motion,
walking by
from behind
the reason why

I looked up
was mesmerized
was transfixed
and too surprised...

no longer lost
in idle thought,
swinging hips
to me had brought

awareness through
what I could see
of memories
of you and me...

time's unfolded
we've moved on
I'm still here
but you have gone

now from behind
within I sigh
when swinging hips
are walking by...
