Notes About The Poem

For the Pickup Lines For Valentine S Day Poetry Contest of suzette Richards

Dedicated to Guy Loranger, the gorgeous 19 year old I met when I was 17.

Like a Sunbeam


Like a sunbeam that fell from the sky
is your radiant gaze, gorgeous guy,
    and with one look at you,
    I know love could be true;
I got caught in the blink of your eye.

Yeah don't want to spoil my picture of him in my mind. However, at 50th year HS reunion recently, I saw an old crush of mine , one of many. He had retained his cute looks and beautiful blonde hair. He even had kept the bangs. Probably he had no clue who I was with my hair dyed when I went up to him and told him he used to be a crush of mine

I have tried Facebook but it is not helping me. I am pretty sure he was a Scorpio born two years before me and that he lived in Quebec. that's all I have to go on! hope he didn't lose all his hair and get fat!
