YOUR LITTLE WHITE DRESS



As I walked through the door one evening I saw that you were ready to go out and hit the town. I saw that you was wearing your little white dress instead of your evening gown. My heart began to skip a beat and I stopped in my tracks just enjoying the sight of you. When you turned around and looked at me and asked me what's wrong ? With a huge grin on my face. I said nothing baby. I am just enjoying the view. I was so hard for me to take my eyes off of you. For a minute I forgot where I was going and what I was supposed to do. Baby you were just so beautiful all the way from head to toe. Your hair was beautiful and I loved the pearls around your neck and on your dress you even had a bow . I couldn't get over just how sexy you looked and I girl you sure do look fine. I remember looking up to the sky above and I said thank you Jesus because I was so happy that you were all mine. I remember putting my bags down and as I was walking closer to you, for some reason the room started to feel warm. I remember not being able to control myself and I had to kiss you on your beautiful lips and hold you in my arms. After awhile I could hear you saying to me that we're going to be late and you really need to get changed so that we can go. I just wanted to hold you for a little while longer and then I said yes I know.  I remember leaving walking hand in hand going to the car and as I opened up the door. I have to tell you once again that I love you and you looked at me and said I love you more. When I think of all of the women that God could have prepared for my, I know that you are the best. I will always love and care for you and smile when I think of you wearing your little white dress.

About this poem

This poem is about me coming home from a hard day's work to get ready to go on a date with my wife and when I walked through the door and saw how beautiful she looked. It just stopped me in my tracks.

Mr. Marion Shepherd Sr

I was born on Long Island New York on November 26 1964 to Henry Eric Shepherd Jr and Virgie Mae Shepherd. I am the third of seven children. I am twice divorced with three children from my first marriage and two grandsons. I have loved writing ever since I was a little kid. I found that I was able to express myself better when I would write rather than when I talked. I remember watching The Walton's Christmas on tv back when I was a kid and I remember when the character John Boy. Was telling his father that he just wanted to write books. I didn't say anything to my family but that's how I was feeling. I believe that they would have laughed at me because I wasn't the greatest reader and as I got in highschool English was one of my hardest classes to pass until my senior year. I have always loved poetry ever since I was a kid listening to nursery rhymes. There was just something about telling stories and having your words rhyming. more…
