The woods with tall trees overlooked my backyard
That area of the house, we as kids were barred
One day while I was alone at home
I heard a beautiful rhythm that soon filled every room
I followed the sound, and felt it coming from the dark woods
I went as close as I could
Suddenly, I heard a raspy voice sing
It was hoarse but beautiful to my hearing
I was mesmerized, and I walked to the forbidden zone
There my singer sat, on the bank of the river, with tears in her eyes
In moonlight, her radiance shone
I wanted to call out to her, but my voice seems lost
She felt a someone watching her and made a sudden pause
Our eyes met, she was frightened and I was at awe
She turned back and ran into the woods, while I stood there rooted at my spot
Twenty years past to that night
That was when I started to believe in "Love at first sight"

Twenty years later I think you may have missed your chance! However the tale in the poem was a delight. Hopefully she is a woodland sprite and hasn't changed so better check her out again.
