For the Girl Who Caught My Eye
by Kate ZimmermanYou make me at a loss for words
Wandering through the alphabet
Trying to piece together syllables
Sounds that describe
The sweep of your cheek
The curve of your smile
Sending shivers down my fingers
Tingling as I pick and choose
Like so many paper flowers
Endless folds of origami
Elegantly original- like you
Dancing with descriptions
Mulling over metaphors
