HOW I MET MY WIFE

As an 18 year old lifeguard
On top of the world,

I sat alone waiting to save others,
But she shyly approached, smiled

And saved me.  It was 1968.
Her smooth, tanned skin
Played hide-and-seek
With her pale bikini.

From my perch I stared far too long.
She asked me if I liked the Beatles.
Trying to be cool I asked her why.

She replied, “I could never marry anyone

Who didn’t like the Beatles.”

I jumped off my lifeguard’s chair,

Looked into her innocent eyes and

Told her, “Ringo’s my favorite.”

From  Sea Glass Soul - Invisible Colors
