Cupid's Arrow

Tingly skies full of surprise, oh how I love when with surmise,
the little rascal aims his dart as if it were poetic art!
He will deliberately ambush you and your entire tush
with a gush loaded arrow he does romantically push
into hearts genuine states of goofy, gooeyed, loving mush.

No one on this earth can evade him, only love persuades him.
With silent wings, he flies towards the fun gains when his will done.
No one has a clue concerning who will be romancing who
and there's no sense in guessing - romance is at Cupid's questing.
When cupid's arrow aims for you, there isn't much that you can do!

David Crandall Date: 8/16/2025 11:42:00 AM Cute one CayCay - yep, cupid makes the decisions - crazy though sometimes they are. I've been doing pretty good at evading his darts lately. Login to Reply David Crandall Date: 8/16/2025 5:52:00 PM haha, oh yeah, lots of women- what a problem - lol. Actually, I might have created the wrong impression, but what the heck, let's run with it! I usually go by Dave but answer to either. Hmm, OK, I'll have to try to put my answer in a poem one of these days - :-)) CayCay Jennings Date: 8/16/2025 5:38:00 PM Are you saying many women have been chasing you lately? I can see that, what a problem to have, David! (do you prefer that to Dave?) Don't you want to have fun from a bit of his arrow's implications? Don't answer. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Victor Buhagiar Date: 8/16/2025 1:08:00 AM I do not wish to meet Cupid and his arrows. I am already secretly in love. So I don't need anyone else. My love is secret. Poetry hugs from Malta. Login to Reply CayCay Jennings Date: 8/16/2025 6:53:00 AM Indeed, how secretive you are, Victor, with this revelation. Mums the word, promise. At least, I'll stay mum but, meanwhile, Cupid will remain aloof and simply carry on! THANKS FOR BEING VICTOR, my friend across the sea. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Bill Baker Date: 8/15/2025 11:08:00 PM But love, love, love. Here I am, shoot me, pleaeeeeese. :-) Bill Login to Reply CayCay Jennings Date: 8/16/2025 6:51:00 AM I am SURE, Bill, that many moons ago you were impaled by an arrow Cupid shot and most effectively impaled into your heart! Your comment is cute. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Deb M Date: 8/15/2025 8:00:00 PM I love this CayCay....its playful and witty and rhymes beautifully! Fun....Debx Login to Reply CayCay Jennings Date: 8/16/2025 6:40:00 AM I wasn't planning to write for the Cupid contest, but my muse planned otherwise, inconveniently placing lines in my head the other night when I put my head on the pillow. No sense in trying to figure out why, lines come and GO on their own accord when one is a poet. YOU KNOW THIS, I'm sure. Thanks for commenting, Deb. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
