A Date With Fate

It started with a wink
uncovered in friendly 
swirl;
at zero distance with self-
discovery,
a spasmodic splatter of 
allure and affection.
We have known before 
the future came
but our path crossed 
yesterday
and we tied the knot in 
time...today.
Joy and laughter flushed 
the face of those
who witnessed the birth 
of this baby boy,
I had a mind of my own,
moulded by the hands of 
my mother.
Once upon a morn, we 
met in the air,
she blew my mind and 
took...my heart away. 
Shaking off the thoughts 
of past pains,
creating an arc 
resounding assurance.
A life of bliss has just 
begun
with the woman of my 
life.
