When We Met

Meeting someone for the first time!

When we first met your eyes were

alluring me, calling me.

I walk slowly toward you,

almost  gliding, afraid of rejection.

 

Something about  you seems charming.

Was it your looks?

The way you look at me?

Your smile?

 

I knew something magical was about to happen.

We couldn't help ourselves,

you envelop me with a hug.

Your kisses are so sweet.

I knew we would be companionable.

 

You have an enormous disposition......

always loyal,

always sociable,

always neighborly.

Sometimes I have to wonder how I got so lucky.

 

When we go for walks,

you lurk behind trees,

teasing me, wanting me to run after you.

We have so much empathy for one another.

 

You worship the ground I walk on.

I'll cherish what we have forever,

We'll always be together,

and be partners till the end

 

Your hair shines with sheen.

Your brown eyes smile at me.

Your wet nose is so cute.

I'm glad we became acquainted.

You're my big  loveable dog,

my best friend.

In the 3rd stanza, one teeny weeny typo...lol....just left the n out of companionable. Now, in the 4th stanza, I thought loyal, sociable, neighborly? Strange description of your love...then in the next stanza, ...lurk behind trees... wanting me to run after you... Aha!!! I finally caught on....gotta be her doggie. LOL, very good.....oh, and the wet nose was the clincher! ;) Enjoyed!!

AW!! I adore this poem!

[Sean Allen]

I love a "love" poem that you can only read once, because you already know how it is going to end if you read it again.
