The Love Gods Smiled On Us
The Love Gods Smiled on Us
I have had a fairy tale life
I met and married the girl
Of my dreams
She came to me
In a dream
In 1974
She was the most beautiful women
In the whole world to me
She spoke to me
In a mysterious language
Then disappeared
Only to return
Weekly
For eight long years
She haunted my dreams
Then one day
When I was in Korea
Where I had gone
To find her
Joining the Peace Corps
Spending three years
Looking for her
The love Gods
Intervened
And she came to life
Walked out of my dreams
Seven weeks later
We became man and wife
That was 40 years ago
Ever since then
Every day I give thanks
To the Gods of Love
For their divine intervention
When they brough this angel
To my life.
