“… Love at first sight…”









Love at first sight 


We say love at first sight-

brown eyes looking up at me 

Dressed in brighter white

pills dropping hand meeting hand

touching hearts 


Hair down for the first time and bright brown eyes 

-first sight, forever in mind and heart

“Whoever loved, that loved not at first sight?” *


Love valued, pausing to lift

Come lay your troubles down, hold me together **

Treasure where my heart is also

Love at first sight




Love at first sight, Glimpse poetry by Joe Holuta

 "With every sun’s rising, surprise us with Your love, satisfy us with Your kindness.

Then we will sing with joy and celebrate every day we are alive." Psalm 90:1-2,14 VOICE



*Who Ever Loved That Loved Not at First Sight?

by Christopher Marlowe


It lies not in our power to love or hate,

For will in us is overruled by fate.

When two are stripped, long ere the course begin,

We wish that one should love, the other win;


And one especially do we affect

Of two gold ingots, like in each respect:

The reason no man knows; let it suffice

What we behold is censured by our eyes.

Where both deliberate, the love is slight:

Who ever loved, that loved not at first sight


** Hold Me Together (Lyrics and song)
