Humor
Twenty/Twenty
The shortest of glimpses was all that it took;
I knew I must have a long second look.
Deep in my soul, feeling excited and strange,
Something in my world was about to change.
He hurried past my sight, up the stairs he did go,
(But I found out he'd be back in a few minutes though!)
Who was he? Where'd he come from?
I didn't even see his face!
But for once I knew I was in the right place.
While my inquiring mind was scouting around,
He returned, introduced himself and then he sat down.
I struggled to maintain a semblance of grace,
Hoping my excitement didn't show on my face.
I felt like a teen at age 42.
I really had no idea what I would do.
For now that I'd gotten that long second look,
I was glad I was seated, my knees literally shook!
Tall slim and handsome
This gentleman was;
Even the timbre of his voice gave me a buzz!
Classy, intelligent, well mannered was he.
Just like I knew he was going to be.
Finally the one I waited for all my life,
The man that I knew would make me his wife.
Ms. Cool, Calm and Collected was coming undone;
Inside I was so frantic I wanted to run...
...right into his arms...
...He opened them ...
...I did.
I'm still there...
Thanking God for...
...20/20.
