Leg man

[Biggus]

It begins with a cursory glance
Long before the beguiling smile
Or the girlish giggle,
Or the flick of the head
That makes her hair dance
Somewhere between the appraisal of a shapely leg
And the curiosity of what lay hidden
And you are smitten
And while your defences are down
It tiptoes into your heart almost unnoticed
It whispers into your brain.
And touches your soul
Then you are in love
And lost to reason
All for the glance of a shapely leg

My favorite poem of yours yet! This piece has a great deal of charm. I did feel there were a lot of "ands" which was a little distracting. Perhaps you could do away with the first one in bold, and replace the second one in bold with a comma at the end of the previous line

Love this one!
