sprightly

a wink
a twinkle
you wooed
delighted by
sprightly flights of
witty rejoinders &
hearty guffaws
you charmed
and disarmed
and alarmed
and now having "won"
you've cause for pause
so whatever this is
this break
this whimsical wavering
this illusion of respite
this mirror maze
made up of maybes
be aware
how easy it is to be trapped
in a trap
of your own devising
and get lost
amazed
but not amazing
