A Dated Date

Dating’s so dated He lately related From a date he dated Who arrived belated Named Candy Dayt A mate candidate? Who on their first date Ate eighty eight dates Straight out of a crate That doubled her weight And looking inflated Which can’t be debated He wasn’t elated Which he quickly stated And later orated That eighty eight dates Ate straight from a crate Is much too dated And dates on dates Should be vacated

Yes, but it would take the old Dating Game show to new heights.

Very creative poetry, David. It was a bit dated and a bit overstated, but my need was satiated, so I stated it will not be debated and POTD will have to be vacated. Good luck ol' boy! Cheers, Bill

Very good 'telling it like it is' poem. I'll remember my manners next time.
