She unexpectedly came my way

She unexpectedly came my way
when I wasn’t in search of someone to love
on a sunny summer’s day
and in the park was the fluttering of dove upon dove

the sky was the bluest hue
that I had ever seen it
and her smile was charming and true
while she talked to me with a kind of wit

but the things unsaid
had deeper meaning still
and that day I will never forget
as meeting her was such a thrill

and her smile was a work of art
which leapt right into my heart.
