The Right Time

We met each other at the right time..
                                        Words that echo in such a small rhyme..
                               We played a game in which we both were bruised..
                                     Never touching the floor but still we cruised..
                               We each carried a light to brighten each others way..
                         Not sure if we knew at the time how we saved the others day..
                             But at least now we can reflect without doubt and despair...
                           To walk our paths and never know how not to love and care..

Have you read "The Celestine Prophecies," Michael? It talks about people who come into our lives, often for just a short period, but when we need them most. I do hope I can write for this contest because there are special people who have made such a difference to me. Does it have to be about just one person? Can it be a group of people with common interests? Love and blessings, Carolyn
