I met my wife in the Air Force at Tech school at Keesler AFB Biloxi MS, Aprill 77., About 10 days after we met I wrote this poem for her!. And as luck would have it, we got married 65 days later and we are hitting on 43 years. Love at first sight does happen...thank God!

A soul is not meant to live alone And a heart is not meant to be lonely A dream sometimes has a message With a hope to believe in love only I could have never really imagined What in the world happened to me today For I was shaken deep within my spirit By a sweet joy that now wants to stay I never would want to really belong To another for a long lasting time But reality awakened me from a daydream When the chance came to make you mine And though there was some hesitation A fear of not believing what my eyes did see I was lost and found in a single moment When in my mind you would not let me be For my greastest fear was to be captured With my heart falling behind in tow But I realized once I embraced you From my life I will never let you go.

"For I was shaken deep within my spirit By a sweet joy that now wants to stay" A wonderful poem. Especially liked his part.
