Donna and Jack's Story

Though their paths had crossed
many times before,
the first time they met
was on the dance floor

Neither had really
wanted to attend
but urged by their moms,
each went with a friend

While the band played
the last song that night,
he looked around as
 she came into sight

He asked her to dance...
she shyly agreed.
Little did they know
where this would lead !

Marriage and children,
smiles and tears,
staying together
for the "Golden Years" !
