A Heavenly Vision

A heavenly vision
  came walking my way
I tried to stay calm
  but my face gave me away

My eyes nearly bulged
  right out of my head
sweat dripped from my chin
  'neath a gap-toothed grin

My jaw dropped beside me
  as I lowered my head...
Had she blown me a kiss
  ~ or vanished instead

I think she must have blown you a kiss and swept you off your feet Gershon. I enjoyed this fun poem :)

Regrettably, most of my kisses these days are Hershey Kisses. :) gw

She blew you a kiss and then vanished. Now to the medical bills for your jaw :)
