A little lizard smiled at me,
I don’t know what to say.
He looked back and then he winked,
It took my breath away!
He flicked his tail above his head,
As if in brisk salute.
And then he turned away from me,
He was so very cute!
He winked again and then he smiled,
And I knew our time was brief.
I thanked him kindly in my way,
Then watched in disbelief!
He seemed to stand upon his toes,
A ballet dance in motion.
Then I blinked and he was gone,
Was he just a notion?

When we were kids, my sister and I had slow worms and lizards as ‘pets’. My grandfather converted an old large bird cage into a habitat for them.
