Love At First Sight

Like ships in the night      It was love at first sight       A sudden glance      Two beacons burning bright      Turning blackness into light      They began to dance      Ending the constant fight       These two lovers make it right      Ending in romance                                 FOR      Balassi Stanza Contest

oh dear, you are being a little rebel again. I would accept this one as Balassi if you had done the syllable count right. Anyway, you got the rhyme scheme very well, my friend. Let me know if you want me to help you with this one. (I see you were asking Dr. Ram if you had it right down here)
