'Love at first sight'
feels like a lightning strike,
that illuminates everything around it,
but who wants repeats of such clarity
when they recognise that they live
well enough with a greater modesty?
Some people will ask for it twice,
thinking 'once is not enough'
whilst being unable to see past
the limits of own understanding.
Other people are more prepared
to be surprised at what life throws at them.
