My Fantasy Love

My Fantasy Love I remember it like it was yesterday, that time when we first met, I saw you from across the room, a day I’ll never forget. Your well groomed hair and dapper dress, immediately caught my eye, With clouded vision, heart fast beating, I missed you walking by. I remember it like it was yesterday, that time when we first met, You asked me to dance and I said yes, nervous with palms of sweat. I felt like a young debutant, at her coming out ball, The only thing missing was the fancy white dress, complete with camisole. I remember it like it was yesterday, that time when we first met, You re-appeared out of nowhere, like a shadowed silhouette. A smile darned my face again, and I wanted to know your name, Then out of the blue, you presented me with a bouquet of candy canes. I remember it like it was yesterday, that time when we first met, I saw you from across the room, a day I’ll never forget. Its many years later now and the memories still remain, So cheers to you, My Fantasy Love, as I sip my pink champagne!
