Walking by the river

 Baby

remember how  we got together

it was a day that neither of us  will never  forget

i was walking my dog by the river

when i first saw you

 there you was

standing on the bank of the river

 fishing with your rod

when my silly dog  suddenly decides

he wants to chase the ducks

unfortunately

you got  in the way of his path

and  knocked you into the water

 i immediately came running to your  rescue

and apologised for what  happened

 but the way you looked at me was so funny

because you was  furious at what had just happened

i burst out laughing and could'nt stop

but i made it up to you

i took you back to my place

where i washed your clothes and cooked you a nice hot meal

we sat talking for hours until you went home

we arranged to meet again

and you insisted that we met by the river

i said o.k

we met the next day and i remember coming up to you with a big smile

but much to  my horror

you pushed me in the water

this time the tables were turned as you now stood there laughing

what could i say

 i was speechless

you looked at me and said now i have my justice

ever since then we have been together

love meets at the strangest places
