The day was bright
Sunny and warm
‘Twas a slight breeze
But the wind didn’t matter
There was a beautiful pond
Filled with ducks and some ice
A covered bridge just like Dora
A few scruffy animals
That begged to be petted
This day was quite ordinary
In almost every way
Except, looking back
It was the beginning of my life
My life with you
Was there ever another
Surely, there are signs that I lived before
But was I truly alive?
This warm winter day
With sun ablaze
We walked and we talked
We felt totally at ease
Could people see us falling in love?
Did we even know?
That day will forever be etched
In my memories of you
To be recalled when we are older
When days might be grayer
I can always open that memory
To let the light shine through
To brighten my heart
To put a smile on my face
That day
Nothing too special to most
But to me it was
Just extraordinary
Unbelievable
Like you

Nothing ever happens unless first a Dream - Rod
