From Across The Room
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
From across the room I knew he was the one;
A strong black man with his dark brown skin and light brown eyes that turned hazel in the sun;
He spoke so boldly yet with grace and elegance;
I dare not stare at him but gave him a beguiling glance;
From across the room I checked out his locked down finger;
If Billy Dee Williams were 30 years younger this man could be a dead ringer;
This man is tall and fine;
I can't get this man off my mind;
As a secretary sent to take notes;
I couldn't help but imagine what was underneath his coat;
His body looked as if he stayed in the gym;
From across the room I just had to meet him;
If only I could speak to this man in his fly business suit;
What am I saying he looks too astute;
Standing over there like a military soldier;
Mmm mmm mmm I can drink him up like a cup of Folgers;
If it's true that there are 2 women to every 5 men;
I would fight tooth and nail just to be with him;
Once he took notice of me the very next few weeks, I saw him as my groom;
Another man he was dating the whole time, I guess I wasn't the only one who saw this man from across the room.
