They met again late in life
She was divorced
He just lost his wife
He was her high school beau
They dated two years
It was so long ago
They went to a singles dance
In search of friendship
And not romance
She saw him by the door
After graduation
She saw him no more
Was he still the love of her life
This sad and lonely man
Who just lost his wife
And then she waved to him
Bringing back memories
Of their high school gym
Anxious to be by her side
He crossed the room quickly
And then they both cried
She was pleasant and cute
And very funny
Each of them had lots of money
He was soft spoken and polite
To be with him
Was quite a delight
Their children soon became upset
About the money
They might not get
A husband who cared
For his dutiful wife
Until an illness claimed her life
Years after he fought in the war
She told her husband
She loved him no more
A second chance for an older pair
Another marriage
A new life to share
Either young or old or middle age
True love comes along
At any stage
