When first I saw your limpid blue green eyes
That held me with a merry loving look
I fell into sweet love without surprise
Without consulting people or a book.
My heart was struck and rang out like a bell..
Like crystal struck by silvery rod or spoon.
And yet I hesitated,you could tell…
Is love a treasure or a road to doom?
For in the past,love’s robbed me of my soul.
I gave so much and gained not at all.
But with your love I felt I could be whole…
Free from those whose very touch appalled.
The sun looked down and smiled upon your face
As we held each other in a soft embrace
