One shadow in the alley
One basking in the limelight.
Two hearts on the pedestal
Two other hands clasped tight.
Three breezers and soggy eyes
Three letters and a long flight.
Four weeks in the rainy fields
Four days and out of sight.
Five fingers and gestures at will
Five seconds to make it right.
Six strings to become a star
Six words to be called a fright.
Seven healers in a closed room
Seven temptations and a lover's might.
Eight meetings in the head entrapped
Eight steps between the dark and the light.
