The Sparkle In My Eye Poem by Ray Hansell

One day she came along
Like words to a song

When I saw her standing there
I knew one day I’d care

Her smile, soft, warm and true
She made the world seem brand new

When her touch I first felt
She just made my heart melt

The first time we kissed
I learned about heavenly bliss

I wondered if this lady
Would ever love me, maybe

I wondered why in my life
She had lived out of my sight

Why didn’t we meet years ago
That answer we’ll never know

It was in Gods plan that we meet now
The ending for us, He knows somehow

What’s in store for her and I
We’ll only know as time goes by

So for now I’ll love her true
That forever I want to do

We come from different worlds I know
But we watched our love slowly grow

We love each other with all our heart
No force on earth could pull us apart

There’s just one thing she should know
My love for her will always grow

As each day passes us by
She remains the sparkle in my eye
