Seeking Her Soul Mate Poem by Jayne Louise Davies

Her tall slender body,
So complimented,
The pink satin gown that she wore,
She looked so beautiful at that moment,
More beautiful, than she'd ever looked before.

She'd dressed up in her finest,
So many times alone,
Hoping that her one true love,
Would show up at the door,
For it had been a long, long time,
He'd left to fight a war,
She'd often cried herself to sleep,
Longing to see him once more.

This day somehow seemed different,
A magical feel in the air,
Butterflies surrounded her,
As she stood right there,
Then on the far horizon,
She saw a silhouette,
It seemed to walk towards her,
A walk she'd never forget,
And as it moved much closer,
Her, heart gave out a leap,
She ran to him with open arms,
He swept her off her feet.

Her dreams had finally come true,
The day had surely come,
To have him home,
Safe from harm,
They were now,
Truly one.
