Flirting

To flirt, a clever game of words flying free, a small flock of birds startled into a scattered flight, wishing, this once, to get it right. Encounters with a clever quip bring on a quiver of the lip, any worse does terror ignite wishing, this once, to get it right. An invite to a coffee date turns me into a sorry state evoking pity for my plight wishing, this once, to get it right. A silent fate is mine to bear while seeming like I do not care. I must be quite the silly sight, wishing, this once, to get it right. 6.12.2016
