Notes About The Poem

Chasing the Wind

Dating nowadays is like chasing the wind,
Looking for that one special friend.
They are young and they are old, and most like to yack.
But for the most part, I would like to throw them all back. 
 
There’s match.com, eHarmony, and Christian mingle,
All claiming to be the greatest thing if you are single.
It is what it is, but from now on before I court,
I will be getting the handy background report.

Nothing like having all the facts (but can we ever really know "the facts")....we play the games and take our chances....

I agree. I think I am too old for this. :)

Been there, done that - I cannot believe it has actually worked for some people. Me, I don't think 'you know' unless you see someone animated. Well-written and clever, not to mention a universal topic discussion! All the best ... CayCay

Thanks CayCay. I can't believe it works for some people either. I have run into some real beauties!
