 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

…My Rich And Me…


We met in the pool one sunny day,
And both noticed the other one swim,
He was watching me he said;
Then again, I was also watching him.
He has an Indian on his shoulder,
A tattoo of a smashing Indian face!
And when I saw that, I couldn't believe it!
Because I'm also a lover of that race!

Now in all my life I have to say;
Not one person has liked what I like;
To do with the race in question,
It seems most people have a dislike!
But not so for us for Rich loves them too,
And we have so much in common that we share!
His heart is as vast as the big wide sea,
And he has a compassion and loving care!

So we hit it off right there and then,
And were inseparable throughout that week,
And every time I started to drown again,
It was life-saving that I'd seek!
And mostly, yes mostly it was Rich;
Who got me out of that scary situation!
And I trusted him, oh but I did,
Well, we have an affinity of that nation!

I hadn't swum in years you see;
And I was a little out of my depth,
So I kept going under the water,
And it would take away my very breath!
But I am proud of what I achieved,
Every day in that swimming pool!
Because I got stronger by the day,
And I think I did well, I was really cool!

And overall I was doing well,
And by the end of the week I was great,
I hardly drown, I was swimming well!
Well, ok, so maybe I over exaggerate!
And Rich and I got closer together,
As we chatted and chatted every day!
We had a great time, we had a laugh!
Yep, he really was ok!

Then when I was going home;
He held me in his arms so sweet,
And right there and then, I knew I had fallen,
Yes, he had swept me off my feet.
And when the time came he let me go,
I felt like I was dying inside;
I had to go, but hated to go,
Because of the feelings I could no longer hide.

Then at home once again;
I thought I had lost him he was gone forever,
But then he contacted me and now;
We'll never be parted again, we are together!
And forever in our lives we will be;
So thankful to our Indian spirit guide,
For bringing us together as we should be;
And for giving us a love that we cant hide!

We are totally content in the fact;
We are together forevermore cos you see,
He promised me this one very special thing,
That man is going to marry me!
And of course, I'm going to marry him right back!
When we elope and marry while we're alone;
And return as Mr and Mrs…
To live in love for all eternity, in our home!

And yes, it happened that fast…
Love at first sight's not a fallacy that we thought!
For look at us, we are living proof,
We have a love that can never be bought!
It hit us when we weren't looking,
Snuck up on us when we didn't realise,
And now and forever I will always say thanks;
To my God as I look to the skies.

For between our Indian spirit guides,
And our God to true and so good;
They brought together two loving hearts,
To live forever together, as we should!
So when you doubt what you don't know;
And when cupid hits you with that arrow from above,
Then I say to you, and I jest you not,
That's when you have finally found your true-love!

…Like we have…
