THOSE CHANDELIER EARRINGS

She wore chandeliers on her ears Her smile beaming between her ears Her earrings danced to the tunes of her feet Her movements like her dancing earrings, so upbeat She turned her head and diamonds sparkled touching her eyes She looked up and caught me by surprise Her companion moved into the room And she smiled at her handsome groom Spaces I had dreamt myself to be in She said something and they both laughed Her chandelier earrings caught a spark He tucked her loose lock behind her ear To mark a tender moment and hold it dear I wondered why she chose to wear My gift of those beautiful chandeliers Maybe she wanted me also to be near I turned around not to show my tears!
