Love Happened

*Love happened*
*When we least expected it, there it was, *
*smack dab in the middle of God's paradise,*
*to grab and take hold of us.*
*It slid over us, soft and slick, *
*slipping gently*
*like the jasmine scented oil you gave me*
*catching us unaware.*
*We shared, we gave, for no other reason*
*than it felt right. *
*You gave me a coconut, i gave You a lizard.*
*i fed You uncooked oatmeal, *
*You let me think i wasn't poisoning You.*
*Love happened.*
*Blooming like the flowers *
*cascading down the sides of the house,*
*an explosion of color, an exotic aroma in the air,*
*filling one's senses.*
*Growing like a wildfire out of control,*
*hungrily licking to feed and nourish.*
*Love happened*
**
*Without warning, without expectations, and welcomed with open arms.*
*(c) Deborah Woolverton
