Very Nearly a Love Poem

We haven’t known each other For too long it must be said Though I think you’re jolly lovely From your toes up to your head Your face is somewhat pretty And your dress sense rather chic I enjoy our conversations And the charming way you speak Those pretty eyes beguile me That smile makes my legs shake I’m even losing sleep, what’s Going on for goodness sake My dearest please believe me For all I’ve said is true And it will not be too long Until I fall in like with you

I think you've gone far beyond "like," John. Surely one who makes your legs shake and causes you to lose sleep is a great love. Congratulations on your win! Love, Carolyn

funny, when my husband and I were dating he told me it was love at first site and I said thank you. He said later I knew you loved me so I wasn't worried. I waited s while before I let him know I loved him too.
