Have a Cup of Tea With Me

For the longest time, I have wanted to see you. At last, my dearest dream has come true. You are an all-encompassing example of perfection. I seem to be in an inescapable attraction. From your magnetic force, I cannot break free. No woman has ever had this power over me. You possess poise, grace and elegance. Never have I witnessed such beauty and innocence. Here is a woman showing the colors of the rainbow. Like the full moon, you emit a fascinating glow. Your eyes look like spring flowers in May. I have never before looked at a woman this way. I have only one small favor to ask of thee. Will you have a small cup of tea with me? Robert Pettit The Secondhand Emotion Contest by Dana’lynn Smith.

Very fine, and beautiful write you have written here! I can see this is a beautiful woman you're attracted to and her being attracted to you! i love the line, "...You possess poise, grace and elegance..." says exactly what characteristics she has! Wonderfully written and the last line puts it all together, awesome!! Excellent Work!!
