My little darlings
How did I meet your daddy
This is our story
Twenty-five years back
At a campfire we met
In the mid of June
With floppy long hair
A loud booming voice, he wrote
I love all of you
Teenagers we were
His friend caught my eye, not he
T’was young puppy love
So daring me called
We met at old library
Lunch at Burger King
Your daddy and I
Hit it off extremely well
Fast pals we became
Midnight calls till 3
Nothing we could not confide
He was my soul mate
Then I went away
To study far down under
We drifted apart
We led our own lives
Apart, not knowing, two souls
Waiting to find each other
Lost and bruised, weary
Life likes to throw a curveball
We met, nothing changed
Still best friends, soul mates
Yet we know it's not the same
We’ll be more than that
Look left, look right, straight
Years searching for just the One
He's just beside me
And so together
We start a life adventure
From friends to couple
My little darlings
That's how I met your daddy
My soul mate for life
To my husband, soul mate and best friend of over twenty-five years, nothing is the same without you. Thanks for being my pillar of support back then, now and for many years to come.

I love how you wrote your story in simple haikus. Short and sweet. Your "look left, look right, and straight" reminds me of that Stephanie Sun's song :)
