Bride of Frankenstein

I have a favor to ask of you, Dr. Frankenstein
because this monster needs her mate
please give him strong arms to hold me with
gentle eyes that are electrifying to look into
tender lips with a kiss to die for
give him soft hair that I could run my fingers through
hands like Percy Shelley, so he could write poetry for me
feet like Fred Astaire, so he could sweep me off of mine
give him a sweet voice that could sing me to sleep
and of course, the most important part, a true and loving heart.
I know that no man is perfect, but this is as close as it gets.
Is this too much to ask?

Enjoyable read, Kelly! It is not too much to ask for...eventually one has to settle for what s/he gets...might not get it all, but could be surprised by other simpler yet worthier gifts! // paul

I agree, Paul. Eventually, we do have to settle for what we get, and usually that turns out to be everything we ever needed!.... I'm glad you enjoyed this poem, it was a fun one to write! Thank you for the great comments and the kind congrats! :)

Hi Kelly, I love this poem - this is a reflection of knowing what you want. It is better to start with the ideal man and hopefully we'll get one who comes close to it::-). Congratulations on your well-deserved win in the contest! Warmest regards.

I agree Pandita, every girl dreams of their ideal man, but no man is perfect. Eventually, we do learn that and find out they are all we really need, and nothing else matters.... Thank you for the great comments and kind congrats. I appreciate it so much!
