How did this happen?
There we were living our lives,
Both on our own
But with good friends around us.
We had known each other,
Known each other for a long time,
But only as friends.
Her husband and my wife had passed,
So we were on our own.
Then came that day,
That day we went out for coffee.
It was like a bright light had come on,
And from that time we fell in love,
And that love is so very strong,
We had never known it like this.
Now we are together,
Together in our lives,
Never to be parted.
Our love shines from us
And all around can see it,
See it shine from our hearts,
For all to see.
And that love grows stronger,
Stronger every moment.
We do not understand the happiness,
The happiness we now have.
So we still ask the question,
How did this happen?

A fine write Gold.
And - how did this happen? That I began to sing - supposedly.
At one work place, a guy sort of attempted to sing a song. Another guy said 'Is there music to that?!' lol.
Thank you Orchi.
Stop moaning you fool;
Shut up and enjoy.
Groaning is not cool -
Relish, don’t be coy.
You know wot I mean, Andy - DO NOT QUESTION,JUST EXPERIENCE, AND ABOVE ALL LIVE.
In no way am I moaning, we just do not understand what we have done to deserve such happiness and love.
I live all the time Dave and will always so do.

to those whispers of fate..

Such a love really has no answers, it simply is, in the purest sense. What the two of you have is a rare and priceless gift, and the story of how that love came to be is beautiful. You also have impeccable taste in music, Cole Porter is one of my favorites.
So true Bella, there are no answers.
Music has always been in my life.

One day my darling said:
- We are free to love and strong pure love can come at any age.
I heartily congratulate you on finding a dear person. This is real happiness. I wish you many happy days together.
Thank you Natalie, very much appreciated.
