Notes About The Poem

As I looked back to 1989 at my cousin's wedding, this poem was inspired by the reaction from the young maiden Deanna after we danced.......I was finally inspired to write some words in 2018..........by the way Deanna is doing well.....married with a family

Deanna's Waiting

Deanna's waiting
With all the emotions of a young women cascading
Now the bend in the creek
Makes her knees weak
And her thoughts of this man are
Filling a heart set to clamour
You bet her sighs matter

When we met in our eyes
It was love at first sight
So don't let this moment end
Or it's my heart that'll rend
I didn't know a dance
Would kindle romance
And Deanna would have to wait for her chance
