CayCay Godwin Poet Rhyme

Cupid's Arrow

Tingly skies full of surprise, oh how I love when with surmise,
the little rascal aims his dart as if it were poetic art!
He will deliberately ambush you and your entire tush
with a gush loaded arrow he does romantically push
into hearts genuine states of goofy, gooeyed, loving mush.

No one on this earth can evade him, only love persuades him.
With silent wings, he flies towards the fun gains when his will is done.
No one has a clue concerning who will be romancing who
and there's no sense in guessing - romance is at Cupid's questing.
When cupid's arrow aims for you, there isn't much that you can do!

Terry Miller September 11, 2025 at 3:54 PM I apologise if I do not comment often on your poems, or those of others; my Kryptonite is the fear of accidental plagiarism, so I wait until competitions are complete, then comment on the other entries.

Gershon Wolf August 17, 2025 at 7:59 PM And I thought it was Mel Brooks who wrote 'Stick out your tush.' Appears it was Cupid all along. Keep smiling, CayCay. CayCay Godwin August 17, 2025 at 8:25 PM Thank you, special man! Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Paula Goldsmith August 16, 2025 at 12:21 PM I enjoyed reading your creative/fun Gotcha write. Great Ending... "Good Luck" We both did this one. Have a lovely day/weekend writing away...............

David Crandall August 16, 2025 at 11:42 AM Cute one CayCay - yep, cupid makes the decisions - crazy though sometimes they are. I've been doing pretty good at evading his darts lately. David Crandall August 16, 2025 at 5:52 PM haha, oh yeah, lots of women- what a problem - lol. Actually, I might have created the wrong impression, but what the heck, let's run with it! I usually go by Dave but answer to either. Hmm, OK, I'll have to try to put my answer in a poem one of these days - :-)) CayCay Godwin August 16, 2025 at 5:38 PM Are you saying many women have been chasing you lately? I can see that, what a problem to have, David! (do you prefer that to Dave?) Don't you want to have fun from a bit of his arrow's implications? Don't answer. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Victor Buhagiar August 16, 2025 at 1:08 AM I do not wish to meet Cupid and his arrows. I am already secretly in love. So I don't need anyone else. My love is secret. Poetry hugs from Malta. CayCay Godwin August 16, 2025 at 6:53 AM Indeed, how secretive you are, Victor, with this revelation. Mums the word, promise. At least, I'll stay mum but, meanwhile, Cupid will remain aloof and simply carry on! THANKS FOR BEING VICTOR, my friend across the sea. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Bill Baker August 15, 2025 at 11:08 PM But love, love, love. Here I am, shoot me, pleaeeeeese. :-) Bill CayCay Godwin August 16, 2025 at 6:51 AM I am SURE, Bill, that many moons ago you were impaled by an arrow Cupid shot and most effectively impaled into your heart! Your comment is cute. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Deb M August 15, 2025 at 8:00 PM I love this CayCay....its playful and witty and rhymes beautifully! Fun....Debx CayCay Godwin August 16, 2025 at 6:40 AM I wasn't planning to write for the Cupid contest, but my muse planned otherwise, inconveniently placing lines in my head the other night when I put my head on the pillow. No sense in trying to figure out why, lines come and GO on their own accord when one is a poet. YOU KNOW THIS, I'm sure. Thanks for commenting, Deb. Poetry hugs ... CayCay
