Courtship

My first Hi didn't get her attention

But my second did,

She smiled and I knew she was mine.

 

We walked and talked

Until we reached her home

And she bid me farewell.

 

As I walked away, I looked back

And saw her wave to me.

That beguiling smile still on her face.

 

I saw her again days later

And asked her for a date.

Just a little movie, she said yes.

 

Much happened in the next seven years

Until I came home from war.

Our friendship soon was ignited again.

 

I asked her to marry me-

She kissed me and said yes.

Three months later we were married.

 

So much happiness, some ups and downs.

But then the Lord callled her home,

Living now with those beautiful memories.

You can't imagine how much I relate. My Ray is still with me, but he has a number of health problems and is due to have surgery next week
that is pretty scary.

You are an inspiration, George Carroll.

Both of you were lucky, it is obvious. And like you say, you have
wonderful memories. So many couples split up these days. Sad that many of their memories will be sad and bitter.

Keep writing!

Except for the horror of war, you've been lucky to have found one that made you whole and help you lead a life that most would admire. It's good that you have so many good memories to share with us now.
