Love Rescued Me

Holding Out Hope

By Earl W. PearlPublished 3 years ago Updated 3 years ago 1 min read

I remember our first meeting at a dance

I was single and that’s always been my stance

But you giggled when you talked

And you wiggled when you walked

So I knew that night I didn’t stand a chance

You came sailing by and found me lost at sea

Like a ship divinely sent to rescue me

It was dark inside my prison

But my sun had finally risen

And although my cell was locked you had the key
