It’s a crowded room filled with food, conversations and lots of pretty things of distraction.
I survey the space looking for a bit of radiance, a dab of interesting.
My attention is pulled toward a shimmering spark.
I see her.
She’s stacking fruit and muffins atop a platter, balancing coffee, turning with her treasures, sauntering past with verve.
She disappears into the swarm – and I’ve lost her!
I search for the light in the room that’s so bright it’s casting all else into shadow.
There!
Up near the bar, sitting with a tedious fellow.
I make my way to delight.
