True Love
vision of her is quite vivid,
elegant in stance, style, substance,
flash of smile, arms on hip rigid!
my glance back at her was timid,
fell in love with her twice my age!!
was I shot - by cross eyed cupid?
her sharp eyes lingered on my face,
she might read my mind like devil,
walks up to me all beauty, grace!
what is the wisdom of this love?
a case of oedipus complex!
or is she eagle on a dove?
years past, will never know the truth,
both wallow in true happiness!
did her age gain or did my youth?
in romance it is always best,
to let all good things just to be,
and let fate in time put to test!
