Notes About The Poem

First Encounter

"recently scenes of early life have stolen into my mind, like breezes blown ..."

                       Quote by _Samuel Taylor Coleridge (from his writings)


Oh, I never thought I would marry her.
We found ourselves under the mistletoe.
Her lips were warm, her perfumes sweetly were.
Oh, I never thought I would marry her.
Her love was all mine, a ring I'd bestow.
Her voice was silky, her speech soft like snow.
Oh, I never thought I would marry her
We found ourselves under the mistletoe.

Oh, I never thought I would marry her. We found ourselves under the mistletoe. Her lips were warm, her scents were sweetly. Oh, I never thought I would marry her. Her love dela was all mine, a ring I'd bestow. Her voice was silky, her speech soft like snow. One day I shared a great love that happened by chance on New Year's Eve, it was beautiful, but it died (love) the mascas still remain with me, I never saw her again... poetic beauty my friend, congratulations alkas
