Love mailed me her glances
I hadn’t learnt to read
To read her signs
The same glance
Kept coming
In different persons
I couldn’t
I couldn’t see
The message
Boldly written
On each opportunity
One day whiles gleaning lessons
From the footprints of time
I came across a plantation of ripe girls
Seeds of love’s glances
Seeds of friendship
That had blossomed
Someone had understood
A fool I have been
I continue to starve
In a city where sex is the staple food
