I knew the moment I saw her
Something had changed.
She didn’t have to say a thing.
It was written all over her face.
I could see the sparkle in her eyes,
Like the flash of a neon sign,
That silly mischievous sort of grin,
And the sudden pride
In being a woman.
There was a conspicuous
New bounce to her step
As if she was floating on air.
There had to be a guy
Involved in this picture somewhere.
Sure enough,
She had met someone
And the chemistry was right.
She couldn’t have hidden it
Even if she tried.
That girl was a goner
And it was a beautiful thing to see
Even if she is my daughter.

About Me
- Charlie McCormick
- Adana, Türkiye
- I am an engineer, and have been for most of my life, but my passion is writing. I have developed a style that seems to suite me, somewhere between poetry, and common everyday dialog. I have done a few things in my life and gained a bit of wisdom along the way. The narratives I write are my way of passing on the wisdom I have collected. They consist of daily observations about the nature of life, the people I meet and the situations I find myself in. I try to add a few more each day to keep the blog alive, and to give me a sense of the momentum of my life. If any of you feel like corresponding with me, asking questions, or whatever, please send me an email at mccormick.charlie@yahoo.com. I would appreciate your feedback.
