Written In the Stars

The day was Wednesday, May 20th, 2015 A day that seemed like all others But for one major difference, I'll now explain An uncredible coincidence was uncovered Two friends on the Soup wrote each other a poem Extolling their deep mutual love A love that surely must be written in the stars Fitting like the old hand in glove Since this magical happening, I've yet to recover My old mind is still in a whirl To imagine a friendship as deep as an ocean Like the first love of boy and girl Although our ages are many decades apart Seems not to matter in the least This truly blessed union of two loving souls Is a sweet and tender love feast Time will help me recover from this event Surely it was meant to occur This melding of two souls was written in the stars Sending our two hearts in a whirl © Jack Ellison 2015

:D Made me smile. My dad met my stepmom and said THAT DAY, "this is the woman I am going to marry." It took two months to convince her. They were married three months after meeting. They've both passed on... but they said, "life is short. You find love, you go for it!"

Dragon thinks you're talking about him and Lady Cathie. But doubt that is much of a surprise. He thinks he's a romantic hero after he went to China for the Chinese New Year! Watch out! If he finds out otherwise he might try to steal her away. Fortunately, his blankie and nappie poos will slow him down! He's a Silly Dragon, but we love him.. so won't tell him otherwise. He'll be sending her a blinged out autographed page from his Dragon Super Hero comic book. And we all know how she'll LOVE that!
