Love Sown Far Back

I’d looked at her with a colleague’s eyes
Before I left the place on a transfer.
Young and energetic she made presence.
After a decade, I was back as the Head,
Gaining confidence for her attention.
My close look revealed how fresh she looked.
Yes, I must have liked her ere I went out.
The seed of this love must have been sown then.
