SO HAPPY I FOUND YOU

We met about a month ago
On a dating site 
A photograph, a profile
Then agreed to meet one night.

Dinner by the river
A cozy table set for two
Now up close and personal 
I sat alone with you. 

Caviar and escargot 
The waiter…. so nonchalant 
Suggested a shrimp cocktail
For an entree …Chateaubriand. 

Champagne by the river
Beneath the moon and stars
I wanted to impress you
I was trying really hard.

Dessert a flavored coffee 
We shared a crème brûlée 
We talked and talked for hours
We had a lot to say.

I was feeling really comfortable 
Felt so good to be with you
We made plans to reconnect
Talked about some things to do. 

The next day at a ball game
We had hotdogs and drank beer
We were meant to be together
From the onset this was clear.

No more dating sites to ponder
No more profiles to go through
So happy that we met at last
So  happy I  found you.
