Notes About The Poem

A cadence of Bonnie Raitt's song " I Can't Make You Love Me (If You Don't) "

A Twosome Rendezvous - Lyric

Brighten up my night 
Brighten up my day 
Brighten up your smile that makes me feel that way 
Come walk with me 
Don't run wild no more 
Just walk with me and hold my hand for evermore 

Just you and I a twosome rendezvous 
All alone the two of us, just me and you 
In Central Park in rainfall showers 
Holding hands and walking for hours 
The two of us, just me and you 
Just you and I, a twosome rendezvous 

If you hold my hand, then I will know 
That feelin' that I get, I love you so 
You'll brighten up my night 
You'll brighten up my day just right 
Baby, you'll make me feel just right 

Just you and I a twosome rendezvous 
All alone the two of us, just me and you 
In Central Park in rainfall showers 
Holding hands and walking for hours 
The two of us, just me and you 
Just you and I, a twosome rendezvous

Nice lyrical hook, Charlie! Also love the title and the way you included it in the rest of the lyric. Hope all is well. Congratulations on your winning placement. Blessings - especially on your walk in the rain. This is from an "old northwesterner!"

Nice, congrats on your placement, it's good to hear a song with rhyme, but maybe I'm old fashioned.

I thought to myself, "This should be a song," even before I realized it was meant to be a song. Very romantic too I might add. Good luck in the contest, Charlie.
