Blind Date

Having ambivalent feelings about going on the blind date, and hearing a lot of arcane gossip, I decided to get ready at any rate, My sister being sick and insisting I take her place, feeling like it was an immolation in any case, dressing to the nines with my lips a luscious red, my Mom my intercessor commenting on my threads, Suddenly the quiescent was broken by the door bell ringing, I opened the door to a handsome flamboyant man singing, smiling widely and smelling the quintessence of his cologne, I could tell he was tactile while helping me with my coat, Taking me to a restaurant where I seldom did eat, afterwards to a moonlight stroll which was a treat, driving me back home we laughed till tears fell on our cheeks, walking me to my front door his kiss feeling oh so bittersweet... 10-29-16

Ooh, Cheryl, this poem was definitely no Light Poetry. It was very skillfully done, the prose magnific. Excellent poem, my dear. This was no blind date horror story. Love you always. RW
