Easy on the Eyes

Like winning the lottery
Bestowed upon my eyes
At first sight of you Sharon
Your smile, the endearing prize

As if in a trance
I stared in instant love
Everything else a blur
My heart engulfed like a glove

Though you hadn’t known
The effect you had on me
A ten year old boy
My heart to you with guarantee

Our hands never held
Our lips never kissed
Suddenly I’ve a new career
As a loveologist

My love for you grew
Multiplying everyday
Never slowing down
Over fifty years today

Even though I lost you
Still, you’re my favorite memory
Filling my aging heart
With love’s endless energy

Yes, I’ve been Cupid’s target
Forever romanticized
Since first sight of you Sharon
Easy on the eyes
