Disappointment and doubt encumbered me When a man with true charm was met His humor and wit has made me see, That time can soothe regret . . . He walks with a tall and sturdy gate, the fleetness of foot is apparent A lover of life, he cares not of fate, And question him of this, I daren't . . . Freedom and fancy is what he seeks Music plays his emotions precise From a guitar, mystic melodie leaks, His passion in song does entice . . . So wise beyond his timid cloak Of sarcasm and buffoonery When his eyes do twinkle while telling a joke I can't help but be merry . . . Whatever the pains of his past He does not dwell upon them Sorrow never seems to last Which makes him the rarest jem . . . I await my cowardess to part And tell him how much he's treasured But my bashful self can never start, I'm afraid merit can't be measured . . . Yes, our paths did cross quite mystically, Yet, of this, I do rejoice Though I travel through life unsteadily He has given my heart a voice . . . -------------------------------- Actually, I wrote this one a few years ago about a man who had stolen my heart. A little update, he proposed to me this past Thanksgiving and we are due to be wed in May 2001. Funny how a little poem saw it all two years ago...   Hope you enjoy! --Jamie "Who does not love the Titanic? ...We all go: only a few, first-class." --David R. Slavitt, 1983 |

pegasus: Thank you... It made me smile too when he proposed! bestgirl: Thank you for the Congrats...two years is a lot of waiting. All I have to say is, I guess patience is a virtue (although I still hate the waiting part)! ~~Jamie "Who does not love the Titanic? ...We all go: only a few, first-class." --David R. Slavitt, 1983 |
