Love At First Sight

Love At First Sight

A Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic)
"

The biggest fools are ol' men

"
I was taken in an instant
With an overwhelming feeling
With a sense of awe
So real, so raw
It left my mind a-reeling

The beauty was astounding
It stole my breath away
It set my heart a-pounding
Tho’ in a very,
very good way

I never thought that I could be
The victim of Cupid’s arrow
That I could be caught
In the grip of love as does…
The hawk seize the sparrow

I was swept completely
off my feet
helpless In every way
It was done e’er so neatly
That I’m truly chagrined to say

Yes I’m an ol’ man now
And I thought myself
To be stuck in my “ol’ man ways”
But I must admit
I’m kinda liken’ it
…Cause….

I fell in love with ‘today’
…today…

You might have to read it a few times to find the rhythm I intended (then again you might never find it)
