I thought I saw you today
as I looked into the
dress shop window
a face was looking back at me
a slight smile was there
that drew me in
I longed to reach and touch you
as your face was turning away
but, it was then I realized
you weren't there, just a hope
that tricked my silly heart

I think perhaps I have once or twice
this is a sweet little poem
and I still see Lanny the way he was
that day on the dock as the sun went down
not knowing I'd never
see him again day he came to say goodbye
the memory makes my eyes to go moist

Hi Shirley.. A cute little poem this is. No, I haven't seen a vision, but I believe the effects of such an intense sentimental situation are rather non-visible or tangible but conceived. To reach for something mentally, is for some philosophers a level that grasps a "real" world, that of the ideas. This was expressed by Plato, and the love felt through that mental process, was called "Platonic". Christianism was based on Platonic principles, that's why the C. theory was called by many Neo-Platonic. The feeling to "comprehend" of something "loving" is quite normal and most people have felt it. Thank you, G.
