Crush On You

Good afternoon my lady Lemme introduce myself,I am a poet I love playing with words and creating puns I am ready to plant you in my paragraphs Print smiles on your face and paint them with words I will curve you in every stanza, each line will echo your name I'll put full stops at the end of every sentence Every comma will pause and gaze at the beauty rightfully possessed My lines will always curl to make your hair more beautiful Every word will always caress them and hold them in a ponytail If you read this poem, I had you in contemplation With every line will write off the painful past you've had I adore stars,moon and everything that sparkle During summer, I'll plant five stars in every stanza Every line will water them until they blossom And during winter nights I'll take you outside to show you how twinkling the stars I planted for you I will always remind you how beautiful you are How this poet loves you for I will bite one poem for you To appreciate God for creating you on a Monday when He had strength My lines will not spare your ribs,you'll laugh your heart out Please, do teach me how to dance So that I can always dance to your heart beat I love the sound of your name in excess You're always warm and you do melt my heart Elsie Who else can I see? John Lenda (Poetic World,2022)
