Describe a chance encounter that changed your life.

All encounters change my life,
That's how it is for me,
I come to earth to take a wife,
and maybe you'd agree,
that as part of a couple
people change and must reshape
(Whether they're a demon
or an ape.)

In the dance of life we shape
our steps to suit our role,
Swinging through a waste of years
that mould our heart and soul
Heartfires lift and leap and fade,
Maid to mother, crone to maid
Turning years that leave no trace,
Drifting on from place to place

Sometimes, if the fates smile,
You can drop into the place for you,
Find a dream that could work out anew.

Sometimes, if the fates smile,
you'll see that look on their face for you
Find the song that makes your hearts beat true.

That's what some of them sing, anyway. I've had a couple of brides that've worked out well enough, while it all lasted.

Well, maybe once...
