There she was, just standing smiling with other girls but they all looked blurry in Kyle's eyes as he was blinded by the girl with a beautiful afro.

It was a windy Thursday, and the girl's afro was so beautiful and strong that it stood as the wind blew, "it must be made out of iron" Kyle thought to himself.

Kyle was a poet, and before him was the reincarnation of Aphrodite, her amazing posture was bewitching, she was the most exquisite being Kyle had ever seen and his heart started racing, this kind of feeling was new to him. Standing beside him was Thando, a playboy wannabe.

As Thando was standing there talking non-stop he had not yet witnessed the divine being, he realized that Kyle wasn't paying attention to him he was staring at something like he had been defeated. Thando turned to see what Kyle was looking at and he was at a loss for words. "Yoh" was all Thando could say, beautiful girls were all he thought about, he always wanted a girlfriend who looked like a supermodel but the girl he was looking at was beyond super.

She had beautiful dark skin, big round white eyes, and thick eyebrows. She didn't need to put in makeup to stand out, she just was.

Thando being himself he wanted to go and introduce himself with Kyle as his wingman but he noticed that Kyle hadn't said anything just staring at the girl. "are you good mate?" Thando asked Kyle.

"her afro.

The ingodishness of it.

The way it stands tall like

Forest grass.

Her afro defies wind like

It's made out of iron.

Her afro shines like silk.

The beauty of it is by her

Incarelessness and tender

Touch, it's black and bold."

Kyle responded with a poem. Thando was not surprised by this, he knew Kyle was a poet though the look in Kyle's eyes as he was reciting the poem was new.

Kyle's eyes looked like they were twinkling with stars and had kindness in them. He looked like he was ready to submit.

Kyle had written and recited many love poems before and never had he shown this much emotion.

"chap, are you in love?" Thando asked mockingly, "I'm not sure" answered Kyle. "I am experiencing all sorts of feelings inside, all of them good. The sight of her excites me, the idea of walking towards her frightens me but I still want to do it" Kyle explained.

"all that because of her afro?" Thando asked confused. "it's not a simple afro, it shows confidence" Kyle answered.

"I never thought that love at first sight was real until right at this moment," said Kyle.

Kyle couldn't get himself to look away, he was fantasizing about fun things they would do together as a couple, the walks on the beach and the picnics at the park.

" Her beauty is not of this existence. She's a creature of dreams, a being of love and hope. The sight of her takes me adrift the stars. I think I'm lovestruck and I like it. I want to walk out the house with the joyful hope of seeing her.
