This Is It

When we met, we were but mere strangers Meeting on foreign soil Nevertheless, the acquaintance was so pleasantly met That our hearts did not recoil Both had been in relationships that went awry I was still apprehensive and My being was a little gun shy A little afraid to give this kind of love, yet another try… However, you understood my apprehensions Therefore, we formed a special bond of friendship As friends we flirted with all of the possibilities Of our being so much more Oh, my dear when you whispered, have no fear It was that beautiful night that we first kissed; My heart did quiver, as my soul began to shiver Within goose-bumps filled with pure ecstasy … I started to back away but my heart said stay I knew no need to anticipate, As I looked into the dark mirrors of your soul Your eyes softly gave your secret away I knew a love was forming more precious than gold We have started something special Some may say it is superficial But, we care not what lies that others may think, For our hearts have begun to drink The sweet nectar’s of love That seems to have been sent ~ Straight from the Heavens above… Yes, it feels so right as you hold me tight… Even when you wink as you say goodnight ~ We do not have to think, Because we know that Love has found its way home To you and I... Baby ~ This is it!

I think thsi poem ahould actually be classified as "rhyme" instead of "free verse". A minor quibble - it is sweet romantic verse. I am going to correct the typos you pointed out. Thank you for your kind words. Yours Matthew Anish

Lovely sentences and sequences, Adell! I really enjoyed reding it. And thanks for your comment on "Quazune" who was my closest counterpart and friend when I worked in Papua New Guinea. He died far too early, I will always remember him. God bless you too! Gert
