Below is the challenge results for August 11, 2005. Challenge: Write a poem or short story starting with the line "When I first met you" Written By: © Kimberly Ann When I first met you My heart stood still When I first met you My world ceased to turn When I first met you I was without fear When I first met you I knew my destiny Written By: © Kanoa When I first met you, I really wasn?t sure what I was looking for. I was terribly lonely, I needed someone to comfort my soul. My children desperately needed a father figure in their lives. But still I was scared to take that step. Somehow you made your way into my life and fill my heart with joy. You are the answers to my prayers and you complete the empty and broken side of me. I?m sure it wasn?t easy for you to adjust to a new family but you never did complain or show any struggle. Everything seemed to come naturally to you. You accepted the children like they were your own. You accepted me, faults and all. You are a wonderful husband, a wonderful father, a wonderful man. And for all of that... ... I love you Katie xo Written By: © Litha Sonner When I First Met You When I first met you I had absolutely no clue That we would be together That I would be with you We were so different, you and I Almost nothing was the same You were such a country boy And I was a city girl untamed We've been together now For almost thirteen years Through thick and through thin Through the smiles and tears Our love truly defies What couples do today Letting their love drift away While our love never fades I love you more today Than I did yesterday And I know I'll love you tomorrow More than I do today Return to the Writing Challenges Main Page The entire contents of this site is copyrighted.
