waiting for the girl with the blue eyes

Lee had dreamed of a woman with blue eyes. It is only a dream! Everyone told him. I think she is my soul mate, he said. I am holding out for her. He held out and held out and held out. The only sibling in his family who was not married. His family was hounding him now. They wanted him married and happy. I have not found her! He persisted. Finally they wore him down. He dated a girl with brown eyes. At their wedding dance he saw the girl with the blue eyes.
