He saw her for the first time
this Spanish senorita
she was shy
and he did not speak her language
but she caught his eye
Under the sombrero of
El Paso skies
He fell in love with Rosa.

He asked her to go out
on a date
but she told him
she didnt speak English
that well
He told her not to worry
about it
everything would be okay

She was beautiful, long brown hair
and dark almond eyes, full sultry lips
and a beautiful smile
and the curves to die for
and he had been around
he knew she was the classy
girl he now had found
She was untouched
and fresh as a daisy
this twenty three year old.
And as the moon shined
upon the Rio Grande
she gave the gift of love
started out holding hands
A universal language
the language of love.

(Dedicated to James Michael as
in one of his responses to me
he mentioned the univeral language.)

True story of my son and daughter-in-law
and I forgot she also has a twin.

Had a piece of reality very similar to that in small town in America's South West, a great many years ago,but it was not meant to survive (unwanted by powers not our own).  This brings back a memory  that has never disappeared.

You pulled it together wonderfully, my friend, and I'm very happy for your son.

Jimmy. I always remind them if it wasnt for me wanting to move from Hawaii they would have never met. It was just meant to be. She is his second wife. Thank you for peeking in today.

Luminosity..Thank you for your sweet comments and taking time to read.
