So many times throughout my life A woman caught my eye, But for fear of pain or strife I allowed her to pass by. I never spoke a single word Nor made a single cry No sound although it seems ubsurd I allowed her to pass by. My life it seems was full enough Without the need to try To fill it with a woman's love I allowed her to pass by. Time and time again it seemed A beauty I would spy But let her slip like distant dream I allowed her to pass by. Then one day I met my wife And time stood still and dry She took away my pain and strife By refusing to pass by. Knowlege tempered by wisdom...Wisdom tamed by youth. |

VERY VERY sweet... how lovely this declaration of love is. very well written... loved the "passing by" theme. perfect. take care, jm Well the sun sets gently on your shoulders And it makes me want to touch you there. And the light in your eyes makes me feel Like there's something much better out there Something kind... And I know someday I might be looking around Trying to find some purpose Well purpose it can't be that hard to find As long as I've got the wind... The wind and your love to carry me. vertical horizon |

That she "refused" to pass by made your storytelling a treasure, in my mind. Wonderful. ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Thank you all for your comments. I just wonder if there are any ladies out there who were passed by themselves.... |
