Like a Stunned Rabbit
With her mesmerising eyes, I was like a stunned rabbit in the glare of the oncoming trucks headlights.
Frozen, to afraid to move, and if I could move, which way would I go?
Her smile is as wide as the ocean and as bright as the brightest star. It too kept me in a trance.
Her cheeks, rosy and round, the long flowing locks of her hair fall below her strong broad shoulders.
Here I am trapped, but I don’t feel trapped, more like stuck in some sort of time warp.
Everything is moving in slow speed, but in reality, travelling at a million miles an hour.
I brace for the collision, the colliding of hearts banging together to beat as one.
Emotions are stirring within, Emotions that tingle like pins and needles. Emotions I thought were no longer possible.
Like a tsunami, memories are gushing back, good, funny, sad, haunting memories, it felt right to share.
Her voice is soft, pronounced, commanding, and sweet, it has a magical ring to its tones.
Though the world is not perfect, just now, it is for me, the feeling of excitement, like parachuting for the very first time, like skiing down the mountain and not falling.
Everest was conquered, and I’ll conquer this mountain as well, for what waits atop, is more than I could possibly deserve.
Not a new man, but a refreshed man, a man with more purpose in my life than before.
This is my second chance at achieving a fulfilment we all have seeked at one time or another.
The lessons I have learnt are now invaluable.
If this is a dream, I do not want to awake, Should it be a dream then I intend to make it a reality.
The above was inspired by someone who has turned my life upside down and inside out, shaken and dusted it off.
To that person,
THANK YOU

awww shucks ma'am
your just being super nice like you always are.
but you are right, the feeling is one i want to last until my final breath, just have to find away to make it happen i guess.
thank you for your very sweet words.
as for the land down under, you travel, i'd offer to be your guide if you ever come this way.
and NO kangaroos dont live on the main streets....
i just hope i'm not in over my head.
well that would depend on who you were to ask.....
im just afraid of the deep, sharks play there.....
Gosh Mate, you have it high.
Nothing like a good shot of Cupid's arrow.
are you suggesting i may be a monkey or a kangaroo....
g'day mate,
sounds like it,
think he got me real good.
your advice is noted about the sharks and algae,
as for whether i have this one won, i do hope so.
it just feels soooooo right.
happy you have good self esteem
A new car, quite possibly but not quite,
of course my granddaughter could be the inspiration, as she does all those things, but alas no.
Did i really say "her", oh i did, opps,
If the truth be known Teddy, it is your story and success that has shown me what could happen does in fact happen and could happen to any of us.
Mate, i applaud both you and Jenny on the having the courage of your commitment to see things through.
I once fell in love with 8 girls within 24 hours on here and then they were all gone after I woke up.
but that song comforted me ''to all the girls I used to love''
sometimes I wonder what happened.
Goodluck Simmo
Your asking me to name "her"....
really, how long did it take you to name Jenny....
Im sure when the time is right, all may/will be revealed.
The stupid thing Teddy, is that i wasnt looking or interested in any sort of relationship, but then wham bam on the bum it bites at you.....
thanks Mate, As i say if this is a dream i dont want to wake up,
Alas reality is what it is and i am wide awake and the feeling is sensational.
thank you for the kind words...
If the truth be known, this is my first ever attempt at any sort of poem, in fact all i was doing was trying to put into words my thoughts/feelings etc, never started out thinking it would be any sort of poem though.
But i do thank you.
as for being a hopeless romantic, guilty as charged your honour...
thanks for the vote of confidence and the nice words.
but as you know, not everyone shares your opinion, still thats there problem for not wanting or getting to know me better.
Mate i am ready for all the teasing, so i say bring it on, i can handle it.
As for the lady i take about, i am quietly confident she can see all sides of me and will pay no attention to those that are doubters, just as jenny and you did.
yep its early days, but great days.
All the best my friend.
Story The mo disappeared a little while ago.
I grew it to have it shaved for charity.
Mens health.
Sorry.
I'll see if I'm allowed to grow it back.
We should wish for others what we hope for ourselves(happiness/peace) to all
i read those who fall in love will create a poem, which he/she has never done it b4, but you made a poem while she has put your life upside down. it's still one of a good way to come out from your disillusion.
don't give up, friend. there is always someone who is better for you out there :wave
Given all things equal, that is the right way to look at it.
As i said to Teddy, i was looking, it just came up and bit me on my backside.
Hope everything is well in your world.
This sounds corny, but i am not giving up on what has happened, and i have no intention of seeking any further, My feelings are that the person who inspired me to write what i did feels the same way.
Time will tell, but everything is all on the up and up just now.
I think i know who's the lucky gal
its obvious (considering i'm right that is)
~DAN~
happy for you to name who you think it may be, but i'm not sure it's all that obvious, if it is, O BOY.....
thanks mate,
I havent blogged for a while, but have been reading some.
Congratulations to you with Christina, i sincerely hope all goes as you wish it to with her.
Feelings of love is good.
but if i am right you give her away yourself with your "choosen" words within your poem
But ah sure what would i know, i am only a witch
But does anyone else see WHO i see???
you may be a witch, but not a witch to be scared of,
you are the good witch of the north. (seeing as Ireland is North of me)
Not sure it is that obvious, but feel free to share, i want confirm or deny, but it would be interesting to see "who" you think/see it is......
your a bit of a meanie simmo
But ok,i'll tell you what,
you tell me who she is and i'll tell you if my way of thinking is right or wrong
if you play fair, i'm even willing to overlook you are a bit of a meanie
~DAN~
It would seem your open to us having a quick guess,so I would pair you with Ema2...please tell me am not right like teddy did
sorry friend, i dont even know who that lady is. so you would be
