we meet on the playground
near the flower garden
among the dancing butterflies
there
with the glint in her eyes
a mischievous grin on her lips
and the sultry accent of her voice
she captured my heart
when she left for home
she took it
sealing it in a glass jar
placing it high on a kitchen shelf
next to the pickled beets
where no one else can see
