When I catch a glimpse of you
in the corner of my eye
acting impulsively silly;
I'm instantly transported
back in time,
to the moment we first met;
and I can't help but smile.
In my heart, I picture you as you were
at that precise moment;
a playful, gregarious
fun-loving soul, I felt I had to meet.
I saw you strutting around the bar
with plastic swivel sticks stuck in your hair
and a huge smile lighting up your face;
and I fell in love.
And though it's been over forty-five years,
I will never forget that night;
for it changed my life.
Your personality was magnetic;
drawing me to you
with such a compelling force,
that it can only be described as love at first sight.
And the years have only strengthened
that initial feeling;
locking it into my memory
where it continues to make me smile,
and always will.
