Roy and Annalee

Appropriate for Valentine's Day:  Here is a fictional story about young love.

A Love Story

He wore a nice crisp, freshly -pressed plaid dress shirt,

He took his old pick up to the carwash and got off most the dirt,

He had a clean-cut haircut from the local barbershop,

His farmer’s tan was evident from tending to his crop,

He was a small town, yes ma’am, kind but strong country boy,

He was a gentleman, kind of shy, hard-working; His name was Roy,

She wore a sundress, cowboy boots and her hair up in a bun,

She waited patiently for him, on her porch, sitting in the sun,

She was a sweet girl, confident, and beautiful inside and out,

They were a match made in heaven; there really was no doubt,

She had a warm smile, a loving heart; Her name was Annalee,

Not long ago, she’ll never forget, when he got down on one knee,

She saw his truck top the hill and her sparkling eyes lit up,

She ran down the long driveway saying bye to her family pup,

He jumped right out and came around to open up her door,

His southern charm and courtesy made her love him even more,

The ride they took was not too far as they pulled up in the lot,

 Of an old white church where they both grew up; it is where they would tie the knot,

The All- American girl and the man of her dreams had faith in God above,

They had abundant hope for a future and a life filled with love.
