The Day I Met Your Father

The day I met your father,
He had flowers in his hands.
Swiftly, he passed me by
With not a second glance.

Looking at his fleeting form,
I wondered whom they were for.
The petals strewn all over
Slowly curling on the floor.

I walked on a familiar path,
On a day like everyday.
Feeling a little uplifted,
Smiling along all the way.

I came upon an open window,
Through it I saw his face.
Full of laughter and tears
With an expression that stays.

My tracks slowed and stopped.
I gazed long at the window.
Something about that moment
Made everything else move slow.

The day I met your father,
I saw hope in his eyes.
And I knew I was in love
As he looked into mine.

Eyes closed to the world Still so pure, so full of life. I waited and waited For her to look at me once. I cooed and warbled But she didn’t listen, my baby. Wrapped up in a monkey suit, One too big for that tiny thing I felt her tiny heart beating And I knew that I loved her.

Romance over the P.C.R machine

I looked at you, and you at me. It was that thing called destiny. It took just one look from you For me to follow out through The door, to our secret place. Where we would have sweet embrace. As we picked out the little ones And set them in lines at once. With the push of a button as it may, We prayed to god to make our day. And as I held your gaze again, I could see that it had begun. Illuminated by the sun, we did seem. Our romance was over the P.C.R machine. -R.R.R
