One Night While Strolling Poem by edward turner

One night while strolling along the shore, taking in all the night had to offer. I saw you from a distance, standing, watching the moon dance across the waves, like two lovers dancing to there own heartbeat.
As my stroll drew me closer to you, I couldn't help but notice how the wind played in your hair, how your perfume became the very thing i lived on for the moment. I knew I startled you when I said ' hello', but I had to put a face to this vision of perfection, however; when you turned and smiled, time stood still and that brief moment turned into a lifetime.
Your eyes caught the moonlight, and in a transfixed stair, I watched you make it a part of your beauty.Your reply, so soft, it was as gentle as the night in which we stood eye to eye and smile to smile.
Do you realize after all these years our daughter still likes to hear the story about the way we met, and just as much as she loves to hear it, I love to tell it.
