~ A MEETING BY CHANCE ~

I saw you instantly - I think even before you saw me
I know you glanced at me, but I didn't dare look at you.....
I was amazed at how quickly you made contact with me
Your note will always remind me of your confidence
Life certainly has its special moments and people do bring unexpected joys
Just imagine if we didn't meet by chance
How would we have met at all
How would I have got to know the 'you' in 'you' and you to see the 'me' in 'me'
Perhaps I know already that deep down this meeting was just meant to be.

This is so perfect, in every way!  I love it!
It's a belief of mine that Fate arranges all chance meetings, and I can see her smiling here!!  Very nice......

The road goes on forever, and the stories never end...

nicely said...
I am not sure I believe in fate... for I think we shape and choose our own paths in many ways...but the idea of the chance meeting and of it meaning so much to us..is an excellent example of taking and making the opportunities to maximaize our lives on a daily basis... who knows where it will lead...

I Enjoyed!

Well ...
I'm thinking that quite by chance,
fate gave you a moment to write about.

Nicely done.

Hi Roniece!

I can hear your incredulousness in this poem....and the gratefulness that it IS what it IS!  

I don't believe in coincidence, think its God (Spirit, Higher Power, The Source, however you express...)remaining anonymous...

Roniece,

very lovely piece you have here.
i have wondered this very thing often
times about a certain special someone
in my life...and i believe that nothing
is really by "chance"...as you so
beautifully have put..some things
are just meant to be.

take care.

and that's why i love you"
