Life is funny

You have ups and downs

You feel suddenly happy

And then you feel down

 

What happened was uncanny

I hadn’t expected much

Of that New Year’s Eve party

 

I spoke to a guy

He was jolly and smiley

Funny and refreshing

He looked younger than me

 

He asked me for a dance

I just gave him a chance

I offered him a drink

Nothing very fancy

​

We started to talk

I liked his voice

I also liked his poise

The content of his thoughts

 

He then kissed me gently

Softly and slowly

And that surprised me

It was done so tenderly

 

He also caressed me

His soft hands were neat 

His nails round and clean

My heart beat raised a bit

​

We left the party together

How far we had to go

Didn’t really matter

We hopped on a taxi like lovers

 

Life is very funny

The night was spent beautifully

I am so thankful I had the opportunity

To meet someone so worthy.
