Caught
He held her
kissing softly
before celebrating
with hugs and high fives
with his jubilant mates.
Making the long walk
back to the pavilion
I wondered who won;
for she kissed me first
drawing me towards her
teasingly, temptingly
inexorably slowly
before leaving me
with a pounding heart
to settle in his clasp.
