Brian Strand Poet Quatrain

A Facebook Fantasy

Hey honey,will you be mine
I've got the cutest chat-up line;
What you see is what you get,
Fly with me by private jet !

Vacation by the sunny Med'.
My wealth has Wall street cred'
Play your cards with great care,
And perhaps some day we'll wed!

I'll wine and dine you each day,
On Caribbean sands we'll play;
You'll shop in Harrods & Tiffany,
Money's no expense with me !

Your beauty so dazzles me,
It will make you  a celebrity;
Our love-match will be no dream,
I'll sell it to Hello magazine.


Inspired by Dr Ram's parody contest

Carrie Richards May 11, 2010 at 8:02 AM I love this parody....I'm sure this often happens on Facebook...however, I'm sure some of those who sound as if they have so much to offer...turn out to be not quite so "tall dark and handsome .........or rich!!"

Doris Culverhouse May 11, 2010 at 3:38 AM Funny, there are so many of those millionaires out there, we all should get our selves one or two...HA!

Carolyn Devonshire May 11, 2010 at 1:16 AM This is quite witty, Brian. Some years back I met a man online who had posted a very handsome photo. He wanted to meet, but when I sent the photo to a girlfriend she told me it was Antonio Banderes. I didn't know what to think until this self-described millionaire asked me to send him money. I reported him to the dating site and his profile disappeared. Your poem reminded me of this experience. And, no, I sent him no money. People Pfem misrepresent themselves on the Internet. Best. CD
