I was not searching for answers <br />Curiosity brought me to you. <br />But I kept an open mind and my own point of view <br />Predicaments you told me <br />I did not understand <br />As I crossed your palm with silver <br />And you kindly took my hand <br /> <br />'Within six weeks' you said to me <br />'This man would come along' <br />I thought this was not possible <br />I thought that you were wrong <br /> <br />You said we'd already met before' <br />But the timing was not right <br />It was not meant to be back then <br />I had to find my sight <br /> <br />There was something else in my life right then <br />'But within six weeks' you said <br />'Id jump at the chance to be with this man <br />And we'd be together again <br /> <br />He was the one for me, you said <br />As you took my other hand <br />You read my life just like a book <br />And I saw this Promised Land. <br /> <br />You made me think and dream and hope <br />That you were true and I could cope <br /> <br />As time went by this all came true <br />Each spoken word that came from you <br /> <br />It took me aback <br />It all made sense <br />I fell for this man <br />It was so intense <br /> <br />'A tap on the shoulder' is how it would start <br />You were so right gypsy <br />He has stolen my heart!<br /><br />Lisa Cresswell Wilkinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gypsy-4/
