Standing in the dark one night.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



I'm standing outside in the dark of the night. And who do I see standing there? my friend Nicole shining bright. She can light up the darkest night. Just her smile, you can see for a mile. Her eyes sparkle like the stars in the sky. She is like a lighthouse in a storm. That lights the way the ships must go. I can hear the echoes of her heart; it shows me which way I should go. If only I can touch her sweet, soft lips with my finger tip, I would never let her go. Because I love her so. She can calm the roughest seas and, more importantly me.

Dedicated To My

Friend Nicole.
