Meeting Lisa

Meeting Lisa

 

F J McCarthy on Jan 8, 2009

 

I wrote this to my girlfriend, now my wife. She must have liked it, she still married me.

 

My heart was a deep dark well,

And at the bottom only sand.

Then you came, and I could tell,

That my love could flood the land.

Jealous was the morning sun,

When he saw you through my eyes.

For then he knew, the love in you.

Could brighten midnight skies.

Fields of roses, perfect all,

Could not bear to show it.

For in thier midst,you’d pale them all.

And the world would always know it.
