Your poem tells a love story in few words. You created a tone that draws the reader in and I relished every word. The picture compliments your words beautifully. Together they create a wonderful package.

I like the concept-silence spoken in smiles is excellent. The first line seems awkward. Try: No sooner had eyes
encountered one another
silence spoke in smiles

A very enjoyable 5-7-5 poem to read, I am wondering if the title was meant to say Flirtative glance? This also includes a Great matching photo selection. Thank you for Sharing this poem.

I think many have experienced this sensation whether it led to further involvement or just that fleeting moment. Great line: "silence spoke in smiles." Thanks for sharing.

Yes, there are many times when words need not be spoken--body language, in this case, eyes, says it all. I enjoyed your contest entry, Mystery Author. Your syllable count is correct per line, the image is perfect, and your message is clear. Thanks for sharing and best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan
