At the Carnival

Candy floss and carousels Bumper cars and clowns on stilts The evening sparkles with stars bright You and me, the perfect couple, a perfect night You hold my hand as we walk between stalls You win me a gigantic teddy bear by throwing balls You scoop me up and spin me around Just like that your love takes me off the ground You put me down gently and kiss me on my forehead I can hear the kiss comes with an “I love you” but nothing was said You take a moment and just stare down at me If only you knew my future in your eyes I see On the Ferris wheel we hold hands and kiss That’s the moment we both make a wish The carnival music plays in the background The chemistry between us has me spellbound You take my hand and place it on your heart You promise me that we will never part You tell me you see your future in my eyes too Right there you propose and I answered “I do”

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
