Upon seeing a beautiful woman

My heart skips a beat

by Terry Reilly

My heart skips a beat.

You gyrate, nimble and fleet.

Twinkling, dancing feet.

*

My heart skips a beat.

Your movements, precise and neat.

For my eyes a treat.

*

My heart skips a beat.

Your moist lips honeyed and sweet.

I wish we could meet.

*

My heart skips a beat.

Your perfect form, slight, petite.

It’s right up my street.

*

My heart skips a beat.

Why don’t you answer my tweet?

I’m willing to cheat.

*

My heart skips a beat.

Your love would make me complete,

emotions replete.

*

My heart skips a beat.

No more can I be discreet.

I’m white as a sheet.

*

And now, face to face.

You dazzle in silk and lace.

My heart beats apace!
