This spoken word poem paints a vivid portrait of a chance encounter at a bookstore, where the speaker is captivated by a woman's beauty and intellect. She loves literature, art, and sociology, and her laughter, like liquid jazz, fills the café. Their connection is sparked by their shared love of books, particularly a copy of Pablo Neruda's 'On The Blue Shore Of Silence', which they both want. The poem celebrates the transformative power of love and how a simple meeting can alter the course of one's life. Comparable works include Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, for its use of evocative language and imagery
