My Poetry: Jody

This poem I wrote for Jody Platt.  I think I always liked her more than she liked me.  She decided to go on a mission, I think to Costa Rica.

Jody

As I look back I see
Hazziness regarding you and me,
I know we had some good
Destroyed; by what we should.

Not only by your looks was I attracted
But on spiritual beauty I acted.
Though shy my first attempts
I overcame my initial introvence.

And now the time of parting past
The years we loved went too fast,
The crossing of our paths now gone.

And so the lace a moment entwined;
But the untwining was unkind
Nobody felt to tie the knot.

Sheri and I Dating

Sheri and I had a really fast courtship.  There are only a few dates before we were engaged; and after we were engaged not very many because I was in Roosevelt for my field placement where I met Sheri.  When the placement was done, I moved back to Hyrum, and we were separated by a four hour drive. 
However a few I remember.  I took Sheri to see the movie "Ghandi."  It was playing in Vernal.  My friend Cliff went with us.  This was the first time he met Sheri.  His comment was "She will make small babies" referring to Sheri's height.
Another date was to Ute Lanes for bowling.  Sheri brought out the competitive juices in me, and I never bowled so well.  My normal bowling score is just over 100.

As for other dates, there were few formal dates.  Mostly we did things around the Pohlsander farm, swam in the ponds, hiked in the canyon, and than type of an activity.  We visted Muhlman's, a restaurant in Altamont, a few times.
