A Lucky Poetic Proposal

Love At First Sight

By Marc OBrienPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

There was a time when I was wild

Exploring the Emerald Isle

When I landed

I was candid

Seeing an opportunity

A figure ever so beauty

Belonging to someone

Who seemed joyful and fun

There she was

Creating such a buzz

Advertising wanting buys

Putting up with many suitable lies

Having powerful green eyes

Making everyone let out emotional sighs

And then there was the Irish golden hair

Swirling enchanting flair

Potting a rainbow tempting dare

Nothing could compare

Should I dare?

To go over there

And suggest ‘let us have an affair’

When the take five came

I invaded this scene setting fame

Only to share

A proposal that I wanted to declare

Am I being fair?

And that is when

I said Barbie I am Ken

She looked at me

Giving a third degree

Asking “who is he?”

Suddenly, magic happened

Cupid arrived to do some zapping

Arrow found its target

Making us both off the market

On that day

I must say

It felt right

This love at first sight

That I now write

Before turning off the romantic light

And saying good night

To my wife

Who I am committed to for life
