Why'd I Let Him Go

  
     I met Mr. Right tonight
       At once I turned crimson
          then ghostly white

     There he was, Why’d I let him go
       my lifelong fear ~ He might say ‘No’

My friend, who is a doctor actually met Mr. Right in a traffic jam. He was so courteous, to other drivers and her, she motioned for him to pull over into a parking lot, she was sure she'd never see him again. They are a match made in traffic :) They've been married for years! <3 So cute to hear their story, you wouldn't think a doctor would meet her beloved on the 'street' now would you? :D <3
