Serendipity
Serendipity
By Rick Rucker
I was searching for Love, when I found You,
At that moment, I stopped, what else could I do?
I may not be the World’s smartest guy,
But I knew I would be foolish to try,
To improve on the Goddess in front of me,
On my best behavior, I would have to be.
My speech probably sounded strange,
In my defense, my mind, you did derange!
All through dinner, I was worried,
Wanted it to be over, yet not seem hurried,
I thought that the longer we talked, I’d say something dumb,
Then out with me, you’d never come,
Again,
Offering, instead, to be my Friend.
Friends was not all I wanted to be,
Nearly blinded by your Beauty, I could hardly see!
Before I met You, I had a plan,
Within a short time, to be a married man.
You tore my Plan apart,
When you totally captured my willing Heart!
I realized that I would have to go slow,
My chance with You, I did not want to blow!
I tried to appear calm,
While feeling as if I were sitting on an atom bomb!
That I would do or say something so bad,
That this would be the last date that we had!
Our date over, you drove away,
I didn’t know what to think, or say.
I was so mild, and meek,
I didn’t call for one whole week.
Imagine my elation,
When you accepted my second invitation!
We’ve had countless dates since,
You make me feel like a Prince,
I will try to return the Favor,
Giving you Love forever, that you will Savor!
