Mrs Right

As I stare into her deep blue eyes,

I think, “is she the one?”

An honest girl, she tells no lies,

She loves just having fun.


I can visualise our wedding day,

She stands there dressed in white,

My family with nought to say,

Cos I’ve found Mrs Right.


Love is a gamble - I used to laugh,

Like blindly throwing darts.

But if I cut this deck in half,

I might draw seven of hearts.


“For you, my love, I’d give my life.”

I say, as I take the plight.

One deep breath before the dive,

Then swipe my finger right.
