John Gondolf Poet Rhyme

When First I Saw Her

In English class I saw her sitting there,
this gorgeous girl of mystery.
With eyes of green and silky golden hair;
the sparks between us blistery.
This lovely lady that I want to know;
I walk up to her and I say “Hello,”
and all the rest is history…

Robert Lindley June 23, 2018 at 12:03 PM Alas! The beautiful goddess in my sophomore history class so many decades ago, so awed me that I never worked up the courage to tell her how much I was in love with her. Your fine poem just reminded me of her beauty and that unfulfilled youthful love my friend.. A fav.. thank you.. John Gondolf June 23, 2018 at 12:48 PM Robert, thanks for your comments. We all remember those beautiful goddesses from our formative years when we were wanting to learn what love was all about. Thanks for the fave my friend. John
