When Something Special Happens again

We were worlds apart, yet when words were selected Something special happened, and we became elected We chatted about our families, us in generalisation Our works, our likes, our wants, to familiarisation Next thing we knew, I, flight booked, nigh on 8000 miles Upon landing at 'Ninoy' to be met with hundreds of smiles McBlimey, I said to myself, is Eloisa amidst those faces Even my eyes focusing in, struggling their radar traces On the exiting from arrivals, I heard a sweet voice say "James" as I turned around, my focus in smiling stay Taxi pickup, hotel bound, with chitter chatter, we're sound Week to week passing we're sweet, on Philippine ground Intramuros, Batangas, Santa Rosa, and onto Lake Taal Me loving Volcano's, we Tagaytay, looking down in thrall Having seeing the aforementioned, to Manila we'd head back So, so hard to leave this lush, and so hope there's no wrack I'm now standing in the middle of the road, waving goodbye She never turned, turnaround, we two, too emotional in cry X
