Love Letter Sent To Heaven

That first moment I looked up from my desk
   To see you entering the office door
How my heart stood still; it was in arrest
   I knew I’d not be alone anymore

Piercing steel blue eyes were not stern, but warm
   Your distinguished beard framed by high cheekbones
In a daze, my work I could not perform
   You said, “Hello,” in your deep, sexy tones

Did you notice?  My eyes never left you
   From the second I saw your handsome face
Until I finally had to say, “Adieu”
   I was enchanted by your style, your grace

You were my partner, my soul mate, my love
We had what others can only dream of
