The Twinkle

There was a twinkle in your eye Each time you looked my way I wondered what you were thinking As I slowly walked away. II had seen you here and there And you were such a handsome man I wondered if you were single That would be just grand. You finally said hello to me And my heart just nearly stopped I think I felt the earth move Who would have ever thought? You asked me out on a date And of course I had to say yes We had a wonderful time Who would have ever guessed? Each day we spent time together Became the most pleasant thing Neither of us could possibly have known The wondrous joy it would bring. We married and settled down And I became your wife We had two lovely children And we had a pretty good life. Now our children are all grown And have children of their own Because of that twinkle in your eye Who would have ever known? Connie Moore 10/29/13
